CHOSEN ONE - EARTH'S TREASUREThe United States of America has precise first contact protocols established in the event of an encounter with extraterrestrial beings. However, the government did not count on a ship slipping through our defense system and landing on a frozen Minnesota meadow, without any forewarning. Although our military forces scramble to secure the scene, these aliens have protocols of their own, and we have little choice but to do things their way. On that cold winter evening, Dawn Halverston's car left her stranded on a secluded road where she is the only witness to the landing of the alien spacecraft. When it employs a protective dome over the surrounding area, and she is isolated inside with the huge ship, she must overcome her fear to be the representative of her people. Chosen One - Earth's Treasure follows a young woman's journey into uncharted territory, where with youthful optimism and confidence she establishes a relationship with the aliens. Unfortunately, it isn't long before incidents occur to make her question her own ability and judgment. And when she has yet another encounter, she learns that there are many more inhabited planets out there. Others who are interested in Earth, and in the treasure discovered here. What is this treasure? Which side is telling the truth? There is a lot more going on than establishing contact between planets. We are merely pawns in an intergalactic battle for power and control of our galaxy, and all we can do is watch and hope we're on the winning side.With engaging characters, page-turning twists, and a unique conclusion, this story is a refreshing alternative to a market filled with gloom, doom, and blood. It provides an uplifting break from reality, and transports us to that meadow to be a part of the first contact with space travelers.
