The most compelling novel of the unknown ever written. SYNOPSIS: The day the unknown fell to Earth. The date was Friday, the third of August. For some people, depending where they lived, the day was just beginning. For others, it was the end of another, perfectly normal day. Suddenly all the world's radar screens went haywire. This time it had really happened. An alien spacecraft was in orbit around this island Earth. In utmost secrecy, an undercover team of the best brains the US government could muster desperately tried to analyse an enigma that nothing had prepared them for. Nine weeks later, civilization was on the brink of a total breakdown more devastating than any natural or man-made disaster. The unknown was here--and it defied all the powers of human comprehension. Patrick Tilley's brilliant bestselling novel of humanity's first contact with advanced alien intelligence--now specially revised and updated by the author--is a high-tension tour-de-force that will leave you thinking long after you have turned the last page.
