A secret agency must solve the riddles of history to battle an apocalyptic alien threat in this supernatural thriller series debut.
In the summer of 1947, an unidentified object crashed in Roswell, New Mexico. There were no survivors. Now it's happened again. But this time, two creatures have emerged from the wreckage. One is a small, benevolent being, brimming with intelligence. The other is an animal of remarkable strength, brought to Earth to annihilate all life on the planet. It is called the Destroyer of Worlds.
In the desert wastelands of the American Southwest, a battle is about to commence as the two creatures set out to fulfill their own destinies among the human race. Only the Event Group, the US government's most secret agency, is prepared to stop the devastation. Now they must uncover the hidden truths of ancient myths and legends to ensure that history's errors will never be repeated.
Led by the valiant Major Jack Collins, the Event Group wages total war in the desert. Using the benevolent creature as an ally and resource, they combine forces with the US military and prepare themselves for an epic battle against the most dangerous threat humanity has ever faced.

      Former Special Ops member Golemon puts his military experience to good use in this promising debut sure to satisfy fans of The X-Files
      . Maj. Jack Collins, whose career was jeopardized after he testified truthfully before Congress about a debacle in Afghanistan, is given a new lease on life after he's drafted into the Event Group, a covert organization that hides behind the facade of the National Archives. The group's shadowy leaders reveal to Collins that they have secretly served every U.S. president since Lincoln, tracking down artifacts like Noah's Ark in the interest of national security. Collins receives a baptism of fire when the downing of a military aircraft appears to be the work of the same kind of UFOs responsible for the legendary Roswell incident in 1947. While the climactic scenes may be a bit too reminiscent of the parody horror film Tremors
      for some, the plotting and hair's-breadth escapes evoke some of the early work of Preston and Child, and the author's premise offers a rich lode of materials for the inevitable sequels.
