About the book
The bizarre events that have been occurring across the United States-unexplained "oddities" tracked by Air Defense, mysterious disappearances, shocking deaths-seem to have no bearing on Benita Alvarez-Shipton's life. That is, until the soft-spoken thirty-six year-old bookstore manager is approached by a pair of aliens who request that she transmit a "message of peace" to the powers-that-be in Washington, D.C. Suddenly an ordinary woman with a poor self-image and low self-esteem has been thrust into the limelight as she leaves behind an unhappy home and marriage to undertake a mission of utmost importance.But this adventure is more perilous and important than Benita can imagine. For the alien envoys have come with a dire warning about another extraterrestrial race: predators whose attention is focussed on Earth-and who may have already made their first "visit."
