Venice. On a full moon night, members of a secret society gather in an ancient palace. A few calle further on, Bepi Galvano, a genius of physics, is about to celebrate his eightieth birthday. To celebrate the occasion, his neighbours, three bright kids, are organising a big party. During the night, however, the professor disappears in circumstances that remain unclear. Perhaps that mysterious association, the Lunar Society, is involved in the enigma of his disappearance?
In a labyrinthine Venice, three young protagonists are about to face a race against time. The future of humanity may lie in the professor’s latest invention, an incredible machine to produce green energy from water. Now it is up to Bepi’s boys to take up his legacy and prevent darkness from falling forever on the world as we know it.
