About this Item

© 2017: 2nd in the 'Themis Files' series of books. 1st UK edition, 3rd printing:- Synopsis:- 'What's going on? Turn on the television. What channel? Any channel. An unknown vessel, not of this world, materializes in London. A colossal figure towering over the city, it makes no move. Is this a peaceful first contact or the prelude to an invasion? Every child has nightmares. But the only thing scarier than little Eva Reye's dreams - apocalyptic visions of death and destruction - is the habit they have of coming true. Scientist Dr Rose Franklin has no memory of the lst few years. The strangers she works with say she died, and was brought back to life. The question is not just how. But why? Kara Resnik and Vincent Couture fell in love during war, and have found peace since. They are the thin-line of defence against what is coming. But they do not know they have been living a lie. And a man who claims to have the answers has his own agenda. There are things he cannot say - and others he won't. All are pieces of an epic puzzle: one we have been trying to solve since the dawn of time:- (original cost £12.99).
