Are aliens working hand in glove with the U.S. Government to maintain a monopoly of the skies? Are aliens been held captive in a secret government installation controlled by a madman? Does Tom Hanks owe his whole film career to a group of space aliens who live just right of the Ursa Minor constellation? Well, Rod Bennet, part-time ufologist, full-time busybody wants answers and begins a valiant trek out to an un-mapped area the Arizona Desert to find them.
What does Rod find out there in the vastness of the Phoenix Desert?… A former Vegas stripper who now runs a gift shop? A smelly amoral admiral with an itchy trigger finger? A purple-hued alien with a bad case of acne?
