Contact and Conflict Don Foxe

Humanity stands at the threshold of the universe and on the verge of extinction. Earth's first battle-worthy spaceship, the PT-109, John F. Kennedy, is on its final shakedown cruise. A test flight straight into danger. A wormhole opens at the edge of the solar system. First contact is about to occur, with an unpredictable twist. An alien ship filled with escapees from a galactic conflict emerges seeking sanctuary. Refugees frightened, vulnerable, huddled aboard a damaged vessel. Pursued by a race of killers committed to genocide. Captain Daniel Cooper is forced to make a decision that will effect an entire galaxy. Help, and plunge Earth into war, or turn the ship of runaways back. And Coop thought this was going to be an easy trip. CONTACT AND CONFLICT is set in a not-to-distant future, but on a far different Earth. Half the population wiped out by a global pandemic. A fledgling United Earth Council attempting to shore together a centralize government to protect and serve the survivors. On Mars, a hidden hangar within a mountain opens the path to travel between star systems. CONTACT AND CONFLICT is an edge-of-your-seat adventure driven by the action of characters, human and alien. Space Fleet Sagas begin here with the next step in our planet's destiny and the galaxy's mysteries.
