For more than sixty years, the National Laboratory in Los Alamos, New Mexico has been investigating the powerful technologies of a damaged alien ship, an effort dubbed the “Rho Project.” Now, the American government is ready to share the Rho Project discoveries with the world. But as the world scrambles to adopt the alien technologies, three young people make another shocking discovery: hidden inside a cave in the New Mexico wilderness lies a second alien ship. The discovery snares them in a web of government cover-ups involving secret experimentation using alien technology on humans and the frightening knowledge of an extraterrestrial war. A battle has begun, and the secrets of the second ship may hold the key to humanity’s last chance for survival.

In this stunning new thriller, Richard Phillips provides a terrifying glimpse into technologies that lie just around the future’s corner.

Author’s Note:
Many people have asked me why I chose to thrust three high school students into such increasingly violent content. The answer lies in what we do to our kids every day: try to give them nice comfortable lives, then ship them off to some violent hell-hole halfway around the world, hoping they come through it alive and mentally recognizable. War changes everyone. In the Rho Agenda, a war is coming, and as three young people are about to discover, the road they are about to walk carries a very heavy toll.
