Vince Edwards (TV's Ben Casy M.D.) stars as Col. C. W. 'Hawk' who discovers Peter hiding in the hull of the cargo ship that he and his raiders have just hijacked.

With exhilarating echoes of the movie Star Wars, Hawk and his crew reward Peter's courage by promising to return the little boy safely to his home planet.
