Despite the rumors, the US Government has been able to deny First Contact with an alien race for decades, but with good reason: it hasn’t happened yet.

When a strange signal comes from an isolated area in the forests outside of Seattle, they find that First Contact is not going to happen with big ships and grand world-wide messages. Aliens, it turns out, like to keep their existence quiet.

Breaking a great number of rules, Seattle’s resident alien has come back from a quick trip to his home planet to talk to his human wife. He just happened to land too close to a military base. Now, he will tell her the truth, even if he has to do it behind a glass wall and with the military between them.

The Librarian is a contemporary short novel set in Washington State and dealing with first contact with an alien species unlike anything else in modern science fiction.
