Mazie G has a problem. She's a brilliant IT security analyst and she's stumbled across evidence of an alien visitor in her employer’s computer systems. Without anyone noticing, the alien has taken over much of humanity’s critical digital infrastructure and now it’s up to Mazie to expose them. No one believes her. At first. As she discovers the true power of the alien intelligence, it sets in motion events that will redefine the very nature of reality and threaten all life on Earth. With both sides getting increasingly wary of each other, can she prevent an all-out war? The below is an excerpt of my novella, Sojourner. It’s available now on Amazon , as both an e-book and in paperback.

An imaginative thriller about first contact, survival, and the nature of reality. When an intelligent alien spaceship arrives in our solar system, no one on Earth notices. Not until brilliant hacker Mazie G stumbles across a surprisingly skillful intruder in her employer’s computer systems, and sets to work uncovering their identity. What she discovers takes her breath away. When she informs her employer, she finds herself ensnared in a web of secrets that could threaten the future of humanity. In a race against time, she tries to understand what the alien intruder wants before events spin out of control. If you enjoy movies like Contact and Arrival , or stories such as Arthur C. Clarke’s Rama series, then Sojourner is the book for you. If you'd like to buy Sojourner , or read it for free on Kindle Unlimited, it’s available now on Amazon , as both an e-book and in paperback.
