The first contact with an alien race … A wrecked spaceship … No survivors … Now someone or something is trying to kill him!

When Alec Richards was called back to his former job, he was elated, but confused. Why would they send out just one person? Did the government know more than they were admitting?

Somehow he seemingly had stumbled into the middle of one small incident in a wider interstellar war.

How was he going to be able to tell friend from foe?

And more importantly, could he survive and get home?
