When a U.S. Navy officer and his British girlfriend stumble upon a UFO carving a crop circle in a remote Wiltshire field on a rainy English bank holiday, Ian expects no one to believe them.

What he doesn’t expect is to discover that he has been selected to represent humanity before an intergalactic court, where mankind stands accused of knowingly wrecking Earth’s climate. A guilty verdict will mean extinction for every living thing on the planet. And the prosecutor has a history stretching back to the worst atrocities of the twentieth century.

To defend the human race, Ian leads the most unusual legal team in history: an alien secret agent with impeccable manners, a sentient AI who commands a spaceship, and a human operative born in ancient Rome who has been waiting a long time for a mission she believes is worth fighting for.

But the courtroom is not the only challenge. An ancient, galaxy-wide civilisation believes Earth is theirs. As hired killers close in, Ian realises the trial is not the only danger they face.

Bold and thought-provoking, Time is not Enough is a first-contact political thriller about alien law, climate change, ancient conspiracies and the end of the world.

If humanity were put on trial for what we’re doing to the planet, would we even have a defence?

The fate of every living thing on Earth depends on the answer.
