What happens when a broken ex-cop finds an alien in the desert-and becomes humanity's only hope for survival. Jake Devlon had nothing left to lose. Five years after a drunk driver killed his wife and daughter on I-40, the former Albuquerque detective drifts through the New Mexico desert, haunted by grief and a world that moved on without him. Then, on a desolate stretch of road, something impossible crawls out of the darkness. A creature from the stars-wounded, terrified, and carrying a message that could alter the fate of Earth. Jake's instincts, dormant for years, roar back to life. He will protect this being. Even if it costs him everything. But the U. S. military has other plans. Colonel Masters, a cold-eyed operative with unlimited resources, will stop at nothing to seize the alien's technology and weaponize it for American supremacy.
