"The research vessel, Sally's Pride... Plucked off the ocen by an alien expeditionary force planning invasion, Dr. Maggie Kestler and her crew must find a way to warn Earth. Earth's defense technology is no match against the advanced alien weaponry. However, all the Kladdians ask is Maggie's and her crew's help to convince Earth's leaders to surrender peacefully, without bloodshed. They promise a benevolent and enlightened rule over Earth, with freedom from disease, want, and war. But should they be trusted? Time is running out, and the best plans Maggie's devised so far are probably suicidal. When an even more daring plan comes to light, she seizes it. However, the final solution will test their strengths, beliefs, and personal hopes beyond all limits as they journey toward a strange new reality." -- back cover.
