About this audiobook
Captain Elias Thorne left the war behind.
On Mars, in a tired back room of a bar called The Dry Dock, he drinks, watches the dust scrape the windows, and tries to forget the career that ended in failure. Then the ships arrive.
Two hundred and seven alien vessels enter the Sol system beyond Neptune. They are vast, elegant, impossible—and they do not come asking for peace. A translated broadcast gives humanity seventy-two hours to surrender.
The United Earth Government tells its citizens to remain calm.
Thorne knows better.
When an encrypted message reaches him from an old ally—They’re lying. Come home.—he is pulled back into a conflict he tried to escape. The alien Conclave is not simply invading. The government is hiding something. And buried inside Thorne’s rejected research may be the one weakness humanity needs to fight back.
But survival will require more than weapons. It will require rebels, outcasts, old enemies, and the courage to question everything humanity thinks it knows about first contact.
The day the aliens came was not the end.
It was the beginning of the resistance.
