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.

We could be in trouble.

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.

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.

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.

A compulsively listenable tale that peers into humanity's darkest recesses, Invasion at Bald Eagle recalls the golden age of horror fiction.
