About this listen

Five hundred miles from the Mediterranean, deep in the interior of Libya, lost in the heart of the Sahara itself, lies an oasis trapped in the past.

With no surface water, Harat Zuwayyah barely supports any life at all. The scorching wind howls across the desert, driving the sand and threatening to bury the village. Professor Susan Taylor is excavating an Egyptian tomb dated to 4500 BCE. She uncovers the mummified remains of a wealthy family that died on the trade route, revealing insights into a lost culture, but it's the talisman watching over the grave that causes her heart to race. Red eyes glow from the back of the cave...

First Contact is a series of standalone novels that explore humanity's first interaction with extraterrestrial life.

Contains a special note from the author.

intelligent and thought-provoking.

A great addition to this "first contact" series. A wonderful rollercoaster ride of a story, full of thought provoking ideas. Plus a fantastic narration... always good to have an actor who brings the story alive. An all round great listen. thanks!!
