Mary & the Alien

By Ashley Good

Bullied at school and abused at home, life isn't easy for nine-year-old Mary Schmidt. On one fateful summer's night in 1947, Mary's life is changed forever when she discovers a crashed alien spaceship and its lone surviving passenger. Set in the small town of Falkland, British Columbia, MARY & THE ALIEN explores an alternative Canadian version of the famed Roswell Incident through the eyes of young Mary and the women in her life.
