Publisher's Synopsis
What happens when humans discover that they are not alone in the vastness of the Universe? Theodore Newsome's space cadet training is abruptly cut short not far from completion. That is one of the first consequences. He is thrown in at the deep end along with three of his fellow space cadets. It is a deep end that could be bottomless. Contact with aliens was not meant to be like this, especially as a threat to an alien race could soon become a threat to the human race.
