An unidentified craft flew at enormous speed right toward their base. It was obviously not a military drone or spy plane – and the base was highly restricted. Corporal Brett Anderson watched as it made unbelievably sharp dives and figured it had to be using electromagnetic fields to turn on a dime or go straight up into an accelerated climb. He called Captain Jamal Bryant, the Aerospace Defense Command Intercept Director, who was irritated by a call that late at night, and suggested he should come to the base immediately and see this himself. The Captain hung up on him, so he didn’t know if he was coming or not, but he had followed protocol.
The Captain arrived and sent soldiers out to coordinates where the ship seemed to be landing. A “form” was left behind when it took off again. A blonde in her mid-twenties stood quietly like a statue and two others women were lying on the ground in her shadow. There are other missing women – could they have been abducted in the same way? What are they facing here?
This was not an easy book to read. It definitely needs editing. But it also has the reader wade through tons of information that doesn’t feel like it is really needed. Instead of enlightening the reader, it slows the story line down uncomfortably. The characters are not developed as fully as would be helpful to the reader in knowing, for example, that they could be trusted or were competent. As mentioned, it was difficult to plow through all of this information. Nevertheless, the story was interesting if the reader can follow the main action. Die-hard sci-fi buffs would probably enjoy this one.
