Publisher Description
A message from an extraterrestrial civilization inspired the prophet John Nolan, an astronomer with the SETI project, to establish a cult of researchers and scientists, the New Society, whose goal is to prepare for the aliens to arrive on Earth. Years after Nolan's revelations have become scripture, Nolanite extremists draw the government's attention by attempting to put a nuclear weapon in space to protect the Earth from invasion.With the help of apostate Rebecca Quist, whose brother, Craig, remains a prominent Society member, the government seeks to neutralize the group's extremism with a social engineering experiment. However, the experiment goes awry when Elder Barker, a radical Society leader, tries to implement his own agenda, and an incredible archeological find that only Craig knows how to control changes the entire game.
Will Barker be able to suppress Craig's abilities? Will Rebecca's involvement in the government's dire plans to for the cult be able to save him? Or will he be able to pave the way for humanity to reach the stars?
