Description

This Foreword gives context to this fictional accounting of a dramatic discovery and its impact.

The time is 1993 and Mike Liu is deep into a project when an insistent caller changes his life forever. Something has happened and Mike is dragged into a world of intrigue and mystery that he had thought he had left behind; a world completely different from his comfortable existence as a banker. Mike must solve this decades old mystery while trying to figure why someone or something is trying to kill him and his colleagues.

Falling Star is about the accidental discovery by the U.S. Navy in 1967 that the United States is being monitored by four mysterious and seemingly silent objects deep in the coastal waters of the United States. Twenty-six years later, these objects start broadcasting signals to outer space, triggering an urgent effort to decode and understand what they are transmitting.

Mike's mission to decode this decades old mystery is complicated by a series of grisly attacks on him and his fellow agents. Are these attacks coming from traditional adversaries or are they coming from the strange objects that have monitored the United States for however long.
