Meat wagon
The world celebrated first contact. No one asked what came next.
Veteran LAPD detective Randy Stroud has spent eleven years haunted by a case that destroyed his career-a family executed without explanation, strange surgical marks left behind, and evidence pointing toward a pattern no one else believed existed.
Then another call changes everything.
What begins as a routine welfare check and an unexplained death quickly connects to something far larger: mysterious ambulances that arrive before anyone calls, wellness programs that seem too perfect, disappearing families, and a global corporation offering humanity miraculous health... at an unimaginable price.
As Earth embraces an alien gift that promises longer lives and the end of disease, Randy discovers the terrifying possibility that humanity isn't being saved.
It's being prepared.
With time running out and no one willing to believe him, Randy must expose a conspiracy that reaches from Los Angeles crime scenes to the highest levels of global power-before the future of the human race is decided without its consent.
Meat Wagon is a cinematic science-fiction thriller that blends detective noir, first-contact suspense, corporate conspiracy, and relentless action into a story that asks one unforgettable question:
What if humanity was never the customer... but the product?
