Synopsis: The story begins when two teenaged brothers-Joe and Hawk Grayer-find a strange metal object buried in the ground close to the Northern Ontario town where they are spending the summer. As a strange host of characters begins to materialize-including their own long-disappeared father-Joe and Hawk learn that what they have uncovered is a spaceship that holds the key not just to the government's most closely guarded secrets, but to an intrigue that's been boiling below the surface of global politics, and to a battle that once raged on another planet but will now be borne out on Earth.
