An aging sheriff searches for two college students who’ve disappeared in a dense Arizona forest, only to uncover a conspiracy involving intelligence operatives, criminals and potentially, extraterrestrials.
SYNOPSIS:
When North Korean patrol ships seized the USS Pueblo in 1968, the United States maintained the vessel was outside the 12 mile territorial limit. After 50 years, 83 crew members and their families are finally able to sue North Korea for reparations and a $2.3 billion award hangs in the balance if it can be proved boarding took place within international waters.
Every month during the Vietnam Era, our Air Force put a telescope in polar orbit, exposing film which was later parachuted back to Earth. Out of 140 missions, the satellite that took images of the boarding was the only one whose cannister didn’t come down, til now.
A CIA agent has asked an astronomy nerd with asthma at Lowell Observatory to venture into the Coconino Forest to see what survives. The North Koreans are also sending agents, and worse, he is told to take a girl with hiim to complete the guise.
.
John Tharp, and Carol Owens, a NAU junior whose family runs a mortuary climb to the top of the Mount Elden lookout tower shortly after midnight, when they see a green, triangular-shaped light moving across the sky.
