Synopsis

All he wanted was a quiet place to rest. What he found instead was the Earth. Jim Atteberry is a single parent college professor, laboring over an endless pile of essays while indulging in his radio astronomy hobby. But when he hears an apparent distress call from the Ross 128 star system, he is hurled into a deadly mystery. And what he discovers could either save the world... or destroy it. But Atteberry’s discovery doesn’t go unnoticed by those who lurk in science’s deepest shadows, and immediately he is forced to run from corporate militia and scientific leaders who will stop at nothing to acquire his knowledge. Aided by a troubled scientist, Esther, and a damaged Spacer named Kate, Jim must find the truth about this alien signal before time runs out. A spellbinding near future tale set against a backdrop of global ambitions, and the essence of what it means to be human, the Ross 128 series challenges beliefs as old as humanity itself...and as current as today's headlines.
