    About this series

    Seventy Two hours ago mankind learned it was no longer alone in
    the Universe. Two-hundred Alien vessels landed all over the world,
    but all attempts to communicate with the ships or gain access to them by world governments have failed.

    In America mother Diana Morrow, now reunited with her children,
    arrives at her brother's retreat, but finds herself under
    investigation following her encounter with one of the ships.

    In the United Kingdom, new Prime Minister Ryan Wallace is mired
    in conspiratorial forces from both outside his party and within.

    In Parks, Australia, Station Chief Rafferty James has his lifetimes
    work vindicated but his own attempts to examine the ships up close are
    constantly met with frustration, until, someone little comes knocking on his door.

    However, in Chad, Africa, young Joy Fakim, having saved a group of
    orphans from being sex trafficked, is granted access inside.
    What they discover could change the balance in humanity forever.
    But the question on the lips of every human being on our planet
    still remains unanswered:

    Are the alien ships here for our salvation or annihilation?

      When 200 alien objects, each the size of a city, arrive all over the earth, the world's population goes into panic. Yet once the ships land, there is no invasion, no communication, and no aliens nor any obvious access inside the vast vessels. As the governments and the scientific community struggle to find answers, a small number of ordinary individuals manage to gain access inside the ships. As speculation about the crafts possible intentions begins to seep into the public consciousness, those in power fear their presence may substantially change the social dynamics of the world as we know it. But do the ships represent a chance for the salvation of The Human Race or its annihilation? Diamonds in the Sky, Book One, Parousia, is set over the first few days of the alien arrival and told from a multi-view perspective of seven different characters, from different cultural backgrounds, spanning three continents across the world - Africa, Europe and America. Each chapter of the book is divided into three different character perspectives. The story opens with single mother Diane Morrow driving across highway 51 in Nevada with her two young children when her car breaks down. While awaiting rescue one of the alien vessels begins to land right in front of her. Diana realises the lower surface of the ship is covered in diamonds some of which she retrieves. Diana narrowly escapes being crushed by the ship as it drills down into the earth. Meanwhile in the United Kingdom, Secretary for Health and drug addict Ryan Wallace is already have a really bad day and its about to get worse. In Scotland Nigerian Christian Blessing thinks the vessels might be a sign from God and she is determined to see one up close for herself. In the deep deserts of Chad simple trader Omari witnesses one of the ships begin to land just as he is about to arrive home from many months of travelling away while in France, Parisian born half Moroccan Tariq and his team are about to strike terror into the hearts of all of Europe, pulling off the greatest terror attack since 9/11. A mother, an immigrant, a politician, a father, a daughter and a transgender Brazilian all find their lives forever changed by the arrival of the alien ships and asking the same question as the rest of the population - Why are they here?
