Ultraterrans: Jade

A good man who's lost the will to live.

A mysterious being on a secret mission.

Together, they may be humanity's only hope against an extinction-level threat.

Lucas Laine is a man of honor. He lives by a strict moral code, always choosing to do the right thing, no matter how difficult or treacherous the path.

And Lucas is a broken man.

Just when life seemed perfect, a tragic accident took his parents. A year later, his soulmate, Jessica, filed for divorce. The love of his life... gone. Desperate to find happiness again, he takes a chance on romance... and fails spectacularly.

At 44, he quits his job and sets off alone on a 2,200-mile trek along the Appalachian Trail. To reflect. To drown in self-pity. To dissect every mistake that led to his divorce. To punish himself for failing.

Then, deep in the wooded wilderness of Vermont, something impossible happens.

Lucas witnesses an event so terrifying, yet magnificent, that it could alter the course of human history... for better, or for far worse.

In an instant, his bleak existence transforms into the greatest adventure of his life. Doing the right thing turns him into a traitor, puts his life in peril, and thrusts him into a conflict far bigger than himself. Yet, it also offers him one last shot at love.

But will he live long enough to take it?
