A malicious alien race as old as the universe itself has invaded Earth. Standing between them and the annihilation of the human race: an aging sheriff, the hippie who stole his daughter, a prissy bureaucrat and a booze-addled reporter. <p>We could be in trouble.</p> <p>When the residents of Bald Eagle, Colorado, begin to act strangely, Sheriff Bert Grayson suspects hippie guru Derek Brolin is to blame. But Brolin has a very different story to tell - one about a mysterious silver object that changed the members of his new commune in terrifying ways.</p> <p>Bert is skeptical, not least because Brolin has been conducting a secret affair with Bert's daughter. But as Bald Eagle's residents begin to disappear, the lawman must accept what Brolin has tried to tell him: his sleepy town has become Ground Zero for an extra-terrestrial invasion.</p> <p>Bert rounds up a ragtag band of deputies to try to repel the creatures, but he is about to discover the alien invaders are not the most imminent threat to his beloved town.</p> <p>A compulsively readable tale that peers into humanity's darkest recesses, Invasion at Bald Eagle recalls the golden age of horror fiction.</p> <p>"Kris Ashton has created a seriously twisted science fiction concept, mixed it in neatly with a unique horror story, then added some real surprises along the way. Invasion at Bald Eagle is delicious horror fun!" - Clifford Royal Johns, author of Walking Shadow</p> <p>"Informed by '80s B-movie pulp, Invasion at Bald Eagle is a lightning read that delivers on the twin promises of gore and action. A fun, nostalgic romp!" - Matt Darst, author of Dead Things</p>
