Blood moon / by Graham, Heather,author.; Land, Jon,author.;

The recipient of RWA's Lifetime Achievement Award and ITW's ThrillerMaster Award, Heather Graham is at the pinnacle of her career.

They may have managed to win a major battle against the powerful enemy determined to destroy civilization as we know it. But the war continues, with Alex and Sam embarking on a desperate journey to save mankind, even as their friendship blossoms into something much more. The roadmap for their journey lies in a mysterious book, the language of which has never been deciphered, until Alex finds himself able to translate the words that may hold the keys to saving the future. Toward that end, Alex's and Sam's quest spirits them away to a myriad of locations around the world, each of which holds another piece of the puzzle that can defeat the alien invaders. But an ageless foe, long the guardian of the secrets his race has left behind on Earth, arises to stop them at all costs. At his disposal is a deadly and merciless army that has been awaiting this very war, an army as unstoppable as it is relentless.
