Strictly speaking, this is cryptohistory... for now.
The former Soviet Union send a secret one-way pilotted
ship to the Moon. When the mission fails, they announce
it as a unmanned probe Luna-15.
The novel starts in 2019, when a new US Moon expedition
discovers the truth.
Amazon.com offers the first chapter or so:

Has anyone read it? Any comments?
I have hard time finding a copy - it is out of print, and the
ones on Amazon are severely overprised, making me think
twice before ordering one.
P.S. I posted this already once, before the great poster-eater
swalowed it...
