Mysterious, hostile aliens called Shadows are secretly invading Earth. It’s down to a Martian, a pilot, a navigator, and a colony brat to stop them. Since first encountering the Shadows while serving aboard a starship, ex-Chief Security Officer Jas Harrington has been fighting their menace. But Earth’s Global Government is incompetent, and it’s failed to stop the covert Shadow invasion. To convince the Transgalatic Council of Earth’s peril and enlist their help, Jas needs evidence that Shadows are living among humans on their home planet. With the help of her friends, she’s kidnapped a Global Government minister who she believes is a Shadow. When the Council see the minister, it’ll have to believe her. But Jas may have made a terrible mistake. Is the minister really a Shadow? If she isn’t, and Jas can’t prove that the invasion is happening, Earth will burn and fall, and the galactic empire will follow.

J.J. was born in London’s East End within the sound of the church bells of St. Mary Le Bow, Cheapside, which makes her a bona fide Cockney.

She currently lives aboard her starship in Cambridge, UK, with her ship’s cat, called Black Cat, the cabin boy and the chief engineer. Sign up to J.J. Green's reader group at jjgreenauthor.com
