The long-awaited sequel to the military science fiction novel, Outward Frontier.
Humanity has been in the fight against the reptilian alien race known as the Mo Tian for almost two years, and they are losing. An ALAMO message arrives from Sequoia, the furthest American state from Earth, informing the United States Government that it has been destroyed by Mo Tian forces. It is believed that there are no survivors. The team led by Defense Intelligence Agency Special Agent Sanders must continue to unravel the mysterious symbols burned into Dr. Gandiva's son while preparing for the Inner Planets Treaty Organization summit in Seattle, WA. Will humanity unite against the Mo Tian or continue in petty squabbles? Follow the adventures of the DIA team as their assignments take them undercover to Seattle, WA, and to a research station on Mars. Dr. Gandiva and his family, now safe at Wright Patterson Air Force Base, continues the scientific effort to unravel the mysteries of the Messengers. As the team continues under a tight deadline, other forces are at play: the Chinese Empire. Have they obtained an edge against the Mo Tian? And Celeste Sexton, a survivor of the New Auckland invasion and newly elected Member of the New Zealand Parliament, finds herself in unwanted political machinations. Who are the aliens? Why did they attack Lorraine and destroy Sequoia and other worlds? Are they truly "Demons from Heaven" as the Chinese described them? Or are they and humanity more alike than we want to admit? From the author: ALAMO focuses heavily on characters, their development from Outward Frontier, their internal strife, and political intrigue. My goal is for you to feel some of the gut-wrenching agony and visceral emotions of the humans and aliens.
