(Part 2 of From Roswell to Area 51 - each story also stands alone in the Earth's Secret Alliance universe.) "Amazing! A very imaginative first contact with an alien race.

" - Goodreads Reviewer When aliens come in peace, can humanity rise to meet them? The Zalmen have arrived on Earth eager to share their wisdom - and form an alliance that could advance humanity by centuries. But when these peace-loving vegetarians discover how humans treat other living creatures, their trust begins to crumble. In 1947, master diplomat Ryan Wilcox faces the impossible: convince an alien civilization that humanity deserves a chance. One wrong word could destroy the fragile hopes of interplanetary friendship - and spark a conflict Earth can't possibly win. Can Ryan find common ground before fear turns allies into enemies? Or will humanity's flaws cost them the greatest opportunity in history? Earth's Secret Alliance is a collection of clean, family-friendly, uplifting, and thought-provoking first contact stories. Each tale explores moral courage, cooperation, and compassion in a time of global uncertainty - soft science fiction perfect for fans of Star Trek and The Twilight Zone. "It kept me interested and involved. I'd Like to know more about the main characters. Now I want to see what happens next." - Amazon Reviewer Rated PG-13 for social and moral themes.
