Deception Point

White House intelligence analyst Rachel Sexton is sent to the Arctic to verify a NASA discovery: a meteorite apparently containing evidence of extraterrestrial life. The find could bolster President Zach Herney shortly before a closely fought election, in which Rachel's estranged father is his opponent. As she investigates, Rachel uncovers signs that the discovery may be part of a dangerous deception.
