About the Book

The planet Earth is in ruins after a devastating impact with an alien spacecraft. The human race is at the brink of extinction, but there is one lone survivor, Mark Knots. As the aliens from the mysterious crashed spacecraft make new lives for themselves, Mark is rescued and awakened by Tirza, the only daughter of the alien’s chief healer Xylon. The intricate revival process is a resounding success, but not without a cost. Xylon becomes ill. Tirza, faced with the loss of her father, is forced to call upon her old lover, Oren, who reluctantly provides his help. Xylon is saved. However, in the confusion of caring for the ailing Xylon, the leaders of the aliens, known as the Council of Light, steal the revived Mark and frame the trio for being subversive. The three fugitives successfully flee to a hidden outpost and plan a retaliatory response, but yet again something goes amiss. Oren and Xylon decide to use an experimental transport device, paving the way for Tirza, and the rescue attempt. Tirza saves Mark from the clutches of death just in time, but she is too late to save her father and his friend.

Emotions run high and a relationship quickly blossoms between the unlikely pair. As their connection grows Mark learns the fate of his world. Tirza discovers her alien leaders are not what they appear. Together the two uncover the ancient secrets behind the Council of Light’s powers and the clandestine plans they have for the repopulating of earth. The Council gets wind of their discoveries and springs into action to protect themselves, but fate intervenes and the two would be lovers escape with their secrets and an unknown future.
