Publisher's summary

WARNING: The Alien would be rated R if it were a movie for Foul Language, Adult Themes, Violence, and Nudity. It is NOT for the Faint of Heart. This story is intended for mature listeners, like you… "

“There will be no rescue,” he’d said. “Succeed or be lost.” Who the hell says something like that to an employee?

Cut-throat bosses, local mobsters, an influencer girlfriend, and evil corporations, that’s who.

A fun and smart near future thriller crammed with mind-expanding concepts, science being explored today, fast paced action, and unexpected twists. All driven by expertly presented emotions, desires, and childhood issues in life or death situations.

Observatory Space Program Test Pilot, Michael Forbes is trying to survive his ship’s destruction as a potential corporate assassin enters the picture… and the locals want to help, for a price. Meanwhile back home, greed and deception weave manipulating strands of depravity and complete disregard for people, threatening the life he longs to return to.

Stranded on an alien planet, Michael’s struggles are intensified as he becomes the first Emissary of Earth, a role he is totally unprepared for.

A modernized Gulliver’s Travels meets Black Mirror and The Sopranos with a serial killer on the loose. Daniel Wescott delivers a deep thrill ride filled with intriguing ideas that will leave you pondering long after you’ve finished the book.

Masterfully written

It's probably the most powerful story in the cannon. Masterfully written. I really liked the tie in to pass novels and the possibilities of more books I recommend read all the books that came before so that you see all the hooks and ties.
