You would think you’d notice when an alien falls on your head. He didn’t.

The truth is classified. The lies are everywhere.

But although some truths make you question your meds... Not everything that’s broken wants to be fixed.

🌀 Some books ask big questions.
This one starts with:
“What do you do when someone disintegrates right in front of you?”
(Spoiler: It’s not “have a normal life.”)

Meet Steve: child witness to a scientific impossibility, now physicist, emotional disaster, and potential universe hazard.
He’s about to discover that the world makes even less sense than he feared — and that love, physics, and the FBI have one thing in common:
They’re not self-explanatory.

What follows is a science fantasy thriller series opener filled with secrets, suspense, and a few broken rules. Mostly on purpose.

Featuring:

• a scientific breakthrough that shouldn’t exist
• FBI agents with deeply concerning agendas
• physicists who question the universe and may or may not have read the manual         possibly anthropomorphic personifications
• and a trail of chaos, cake, and philosophical crises
• inexplicable holes, nosy neighbors, and an ordinary special boy
• and the end of the world as we know it.
  

Or maybe just the end of what we thought it was.

“Dire Contact” is what happens when you take science fiction, shake it, give it emotional issues, and let it hang out with people who have no business saving the world.
It’s smart, weird, character-driven, occasionally heartbreaking, and always one step ahead of where you think it’s going.

If Good Omens and Doctor Who had a baby and raised it on quantum theory, bad coping strategies, and burnt macaroons — this would be Dire Contact.
