"A truly seat-gripping, heart-pounding adventure with a cliffhanger that will have you begging for the next book."

BEN IS KIDNAPPED.

Thirteen-year-old Ben Archer has decided to reveal his alien powers to the media. Not because he wants to, but because he thinks it will help him get his message out to the world. Unfortunately, things don't go as planned when the media portrays his skill like a circus sideshow.

And not all eyes that are watching are friendly...

When Ben is kidnapped, Mesmo spares no effort to find him. He thinks the rebellious Wise Ones and mysterious UFO sightings may have something to do with Ben’s disappearance. But when he goes to investigate, he uncovers an earth-shattering threat instead - one that could cost him his life.
