Publisher's Synopsis

Visitors from another galaxy answer the Voyager's invitation sent so many years before. It's a new day on Earth in the twenty-third century, and an awestruck public is witnessing the stunning arrival of what looks like a lunar lander in Washington, D.C. Called in for their scientific and linguistic expertise, Danielle, Danny as she's called, and her husband Chris an astrophysicist are assigned by the President to act as the alien's liaison. The spacecraft now resting in the President's Rose Garden suddenly opens and two humanoid beings in space-suits emerge. The aliens surprise exo-linguist Danny by speaking English, among other languages. As time progresses they disclose their agenda: to explore Earth's technology and return to their home planet with it. Acting as the alien liaison is a prestigious assignment Danny is only too happy to take on. As she gets to know them she becomes their friend and keeps their secrets. What she doesn't discover until later is their true sinister agenda. Is she a traitor-so it appears and so everyone believes? An explosion in space, a spacecraft out of nowhere-the government deems Danny an alien collaborator-choosing the wrong species to back...but they only see what they want to see...and believe what they want to believe. Later up on the moon base, Danny and her husband face their own trials. Danny, a doctor of many sciences jumps into action-can she save the Earth and does she want to? Having Earth in the crosshairs, Danny and Chris must choose: loyalty to Earth, the same Earth that had her jailed as a traitor and whose leaders may be targeting their own people for death... ...or to the alien race...and life.
