Retrieval

di Regina Clarke (Autore)

Crossing Paths Press, 2014

Gillian Hall runs her diner in a desert outpost and sees it as the good life. Until the morning Gabriel arrives as her new, enigmatic short-order cook—and she finds herself drawn to him despite every instinct telling her to keep her distance. On the same day, seven alien ships enter Earth's atmosphere. One is destroyed, scattering valuable and dangerous technology across the desert. Gillian figures it's some military bungle from the nearby base. She's wrong. One ship stays to retrieve the technology before the military can find it, while Gillian begins a dangerous scavenger hunt of her own. But the ship's ruthless commander wants more than lost wreckage. He wants Gillian — and the secret of what she really is. He has sent his brother Inac, in the guise of Gabriel, to retrieve her. Now Gillian is caught between alien hunters, government forces, and her growing attraction to a man who may be her enemy — In the heat and silence of the desert, she'll have to decide how much of the truth she can survive. A first-contact thriller of obsession and deception. Fans of the movie Starman and the television series The X-Files will enjoy Retrieval.
