The Alien Corps

For two hundred years, the Alien Corps has explored the galaxy in search of another Son of God.

So far, their search has been futile.

The empath, Hickory Lace, and her two companions in the Alien Corps have been assigned to the recently discovered planet, Prosperine. Their mission: to check out a messiah-like figure allegedly performing miracles.

The inhabitants of Prosperine are at a medieval stage in their development, and Hickory’s team needs to blend in to avoid setting off a panic. After landing on a remote island, they make their way to the mainland where they discover Earth’s arch-enemy, the Bikashi, in league with a band of rebels.

The rebels intend to overthrow the government, but the Bikashi have a different objective. The planet is rich in Crynidium, a rare element essential for faster-than-light travel, and the Bikashi need it to continue their war with Earth.

Hickory has one chance to spoil the insurgents’ plans. She must harness the powerful gift she was born with, find out what the miracle worker is up to, and decide whether he is a fraud-or perhaps the very person the Alien Corps was created to find.
