When Earthlings Weep
A science-fiction thriller by Michael Barnett
The man who could save Earth may be the one who burns it.
Mickey Thorn is an ordinary man living a quiet life in San Antonio, until he wakes one September morning in 2012 to blood on his floor and a loaded syringe beside his bed. A few hundred yards away, two people have died in a fiery crash he swears he never heard.
Mickey isn't who he thinks he is. A long-buried secret program knows it. A rogue general will stop at nothing to own him. Two alien species, the shapeshifting Jengu and the brutal Bruxians, have crossed the stars to claim him. And a girl who shouldn't exist yet is sending warnings from a future that may never come.
- A conspiracy close to home: a secret military project, a code name no one will explain, and a general who sees one man as the ultimate weapon.
- Aliens you won't forget: the shapeshifting Jengu can look like anyone. The Bruxians never retreat. Both want Mickey.
- Worlds beyond our own: from the Texas Hill Country to a methane lake on a moon of Saturn.
Perfect for fans of The X-Files, Blake Crouch, and classic alien conspiracy thrillers.
