Renowned astrobiologist Dr. Harper had sought life among distant stars, oblivious to the cosmic mystery living under his roof. Her name was Eva, enchantingly mysterious, and concealing an otherworldly secret. His late-night discovery of an alien artifact shattered their shared reality, their shared love. Unveiling her true alien identity as an ominous device counted down, Harper realized the depth of his betrayal too late. The celestial intrigue he'd pursued was the very plot he'd fallen victim to, now spiraling towards its inevitable, disastrous conclusion; be careful what you seek lest you find it.
