The Gift Behind The Veil

By Sean Hampton

The war did not end when the Ark ships reached Earth.

It changed reality.

When a damaged alien vessel becomes trapped between moments above the Pacific, its failing field triggers a catastrophic earthquake-and seven seconds vanish from every clock connected to the Haven.

Then a radio without batteries speaks before the emergency warning is sent.

Seven-year-old John Bowie hears a frightened voice hidden beneath the transmission. Soon, lanterns burn without fuel, ancient structures awaken beneath the planet, and twelve mysterious signals begin searching for one person:

John.

As governments struggle to maintain control, the alien fleet divides over the meaning of free will. A stranger with impossible answers attracts thousands of followers, while Samuel and Lucifer recognize a threat governed by rules older than humanity itself.

John's gift is no longer simply the ability to rise from the ground. His consciousness can travel beyond distance, time, and death-even while his body remains behind without a heartbeat.

But every journey brings the Veil closer to opening.

Something has been waiting on the other side for thousands of years.

And now it knows where Earth is.

The Gift: Behind the Veil is the second book in Sean Hampton's science-fiction and supernatural thriller trilogy-a story of survival, free will, ancient secrets, and a child whose awakening could become humanity's salvation...or its invitation.
