A normal ordinary American citizen, Jim Lexington going about his now forced retirement is suddenly put into a position of disbelief and perplexity. Jim encounters a most unusual life form. With his new found friend, only visible to him with unbelievable abilities, Jim finds himself engaged with a childlike and innocent unusual living being and in peculiar situations. Jim then becomes the center of attention when a companion of his new friend arrives. Struggling to keep both out of the hands of the government and trying to show the world they mean no harm, Jim is then made aware of a deadly and dangerous derelict that would pass the solar system without harm until, that is, it is discovered by scientists. Not really knowing what they are dealing with and in an attempt to protect the earth, US and Russian governments, try to destroy what they think is an asteroid and end up altering the derelicts course placing the earth in lethal danger. Jim must now figure out a way to deal with the derelict that ultimately places him in grave peril.

I'm the Author. I know it’s a great book and I am sure you will agree once you read it too. It was an inspiration and something I am very proud of. I never thought I could write but I did. For all those who have read it thank you please tell me what you think, to those not sure if they want to, what do you have to lose? I wrote this book because I was tired of the earth or the human race being blown up or being destroyed trying to save itself. If an alien race came here they would be much more advanced than us and would they even want to bother contacting us considering the violent civilization we portray ourselves as. With this story an average person encounters an alien. He realizes the situation and has to figure out what to do. Like a lot of people the government is not his favorite organization but he has to contact someone he feels he can trust, and so the story develops.
The fun thing about this story is imagining yourself in the position of Jim Lexington. What would you do? Would you use this opportunity in an evil destructive personal gain way, try and hide it although that would be very difficult, do something like Jim did? I think the thought is intriguing.
I know you will enjoy the story. The second and third are written and the second is in the publishing process.

A rather refreshing Adventure. Goodread, easy to read, almost like watching a movie. Story was very interesting, seemed normal at first then as it developed you want to read more. I really liked this book because it seemed more realistic, The author offers a good idea of an encounter that could really happen and does not result in mass destruction of the planet that most scifi has today. Imaginative! I was a skeptical at first but really got into the book as I read along. I recommend it to all (good for the young also). Looks like there is another to follow.
