Humans are the drug of choice and nothing more than an experiment gone awry. 

25,000 B.C.–As the top Norcox scientist, it’s Creek’s job to engineer soldiers to fight in his people’s place. Yet, as he watches his latest and most advanced creations, V159 and V160, lead the others off into battle, he is filled with a scientific curiosity that he hasn’t felt in ages. How are these beings so intelligent and empathetic? Why don’t they eat the dead and severely burned? And why were V159 and V160 staring at each other that way in their final moments of consciousness? With the order that all their genetically engineered soldiers are to be shipped off to another solar system, it seems as though Creek will never get his answers....

Present day–Azita is a Persian-American journalist with a fascination in extraterrestrials. Drex is a US Army officer reluctantly put in charge of 527 Space Aggressor Squadron’s Alpha Squad, an elite and top-secret team of soldiers responsible for responding to extraterrestrial threats. Azita actively searches out proof of alien contact. Drex thinks that aliens are sci-fi BS and is embarrassed by his current job description. Then, they each have encounters with the infamous Men in Black, barely escaping with their lives and sending them on a path to discovering the truth about themselves, about who’s after them, about who really controls Earth—even about the origins of humanity. Only with the help of Earthly friends and a surprise Norcox ally can they, and all of Earth, survive…if they’re not already too late.
