A forbidden journey, a heist, and...UFOs? What does an ancient stone talisman have to do with a legendary 1960s alien abduction and the star map one of the abductees drew? Homeworld Security thinks the combination may point to the home world of a reclusive spacefaring species, and so warn archeologist Hannibal Carson and his pilot Jackie Roberts not to go anywhere near the place. As if that would stop them...although they're going to wish they had listened. What other clues might lie in the forgotten archives of mid-20th century UFO investigators? To answer that, first they have to get hold of the original files. Some theft may be involved.... Of course the Velkaryan cult is deadly serious about pursuing both Carson and whatever his former foe Rico is now doing on Earth, so they're all going to have to watch their backs. Sequel to The Chara Talisman.
