Alien First Contact. A Powerful Enemy? Or a Distant Friend?

Humanity has reached the stars and joined forces under the banner of the Union Worlds.

One planet, Alcmene, intercepts an enigmatic signal from an unknown system 139 light years away.

It's the first time Humanity has received a message from the stars....and it's a secret the Alcmene government is keen to protect.

Without announcing the discovery to the rest of the Union Worlds, Alcmene dispatches the Nemean, a light attack and reconnaissance vessel, commanded by John Gregory, a respected space navy captain and deep cover government operative, to investigate.

Arriving at Virgil's star, a previously unknown super massive red giant, the spaceship captain and his crew find a lone, moon-sized object in orbit.

Unable to penetrate its surface with sensor scans or make sense of the moon's transmissions, and under pressure to return home before he can complete his mission, captain Gregory makes the decision to deploy his small company of battle-hardened space Marines to investigate.

Landing boots on the ground, the Marines discover strange artifacts, deep underground tunnels and passageways...and a hostile, implacable enemy that forces them to retreat. During the chaos, some of the Marines are left behind, and so begins a lone soldier's struggle to survive the unimaginable, only to emerge...reborn.

Are we worthy of time? Or is our time running out?

Find out in this action-packed story of alien first contact.
