Publisher's Synopsis
Many thousands of years ago, a meteor impacted the planet Mars and ejected a large piece of that planet into outer space. The large rock contained sentient life, and it flew through space and impacted earth. From that rock emerged a sentient species which found its way to ancient Ireland. The Irish dubbed them the little people because of the difference in their humanoid size. These beings from Mars settled down and thrived here on earth, but they alienated many earthlings by their very long lives. Eventually they were persecuted and hunted down, so they employed an ability which only their queen could provide--they transformed themselves, using a special elixir, into animal form and coexisted with us through the centuries. They live with us by hiding in plain sight as insects on land and aquatic species in the sea. Over the course of time, these colonies grew and spread to four different areas of the earth--Jerusalem, Madagascar, Baja, and New Jersey. Our story begins in present-day New Jersey.
These immigrants to earth have witnessed some amazing things through the centuries and one of them witnessed to others. His name is Zack. He describes his meeting with Jesus. Of course, he's not believed to be an actual witness--only a very good actor who has studied and learned his lines well. But he's so compelling that multitudes want to hear him.
Eventually, the ancient immigrants are discovered and asked to help with one of mankind's greatest quests--a mission to Mars. Agreeing to assist, the former residents of the red planet help mankind to reach their goal, but not before they secretly stow away with all four of their colonies aboard the manned flight.
The return of the ancient Lost Colony makes a big impact on the residents of Mars where the new arrivals continue to help the earthen colony and try to settle into their former planet.
