Publisher's Summary

In 1948, an alien starship crash-landed in the New Mexico desert and brought with it the key to mankind’s future. Code-named the Rho Project, the landing was shrouded in secrecy, and only the highest-ranking US government and military personnel knew it existed. Until now.

The US president is preparing to unveil one of the nation’s greatest secrets when three students stumble across the wreckage of a second ship outside of Los Alamos. With a single touch, the alien technology the government has spent untold resources trying to unlock is uploaded into the minds of three teenagers — teenagers who now know the frightening truth about the Rho Project.The battle for humanity has begun.

Good

It was a very interesting story, at times I thought the author tried to do too much The golden rule of science fiction writing is to get one give me, so for example will accept that aliens exist for the sake of the story. Towards the end though it was starting to get a bit unbelievable with too many give me example these religious nuts, serial killers and a wall agents like priest. The author might of been a bit better to have a few less side issues and develop the main progression of the story little bit more
