A Glistening Planet

Rumors of a planet that is covered in gold, diamonds and precious metals has been talked about for centuries. Many believe that the planet does exist somewhere in the galaxy and astronomers even refer to it as planet R4591, but most people call it the Glistening Planet.
When a team of engineers receives a contract to fit life-support systems on the domes of a newly discovered planet they jump at the chance. Arriving at the planet they find that the Glistening Planet is no myth as it glitters and shines as the surface is indeed covered in a fortune of precious metals and gemstones.
The engineers find out that there is more to the Glistening Planet than vast wealth and they soon find themselves fighting for their lives. More are on the way to raid the planets' riches as well as an army from a military regime and the engineers know they must get off the Glistening Planet as they know of its location and to remain means certain death.
