Tick… Tick… Tick… by Steve Zettler
Harlan Stone is a special agent who reports directly to the president. He’s been dispatched to Pennsylvania Dutch Country to investigate a bizarre occurrence—a farmer’s bull has gone sterile for no discernable reason. On his train trip back to DC Harlan’s approached by Angelica. Harlan senses she’s a foreign operative, though he has trouble getting a solid read on her. The Pennsylvania bull is just the tip of the iceberg; within days every bull in the country has become sterile, and within a week—every bull on earth is shooting blanks. It becomes clear that there is a force seeking to rid the world of the methane gasses these animals produce. Questions fly around the Oval Office. As events spiral out of control, Angelica reveals to Harlan that she is an alien, and hails from a colony called Perigee. She explains that humans are in fact a rampant disease that has infected the planet. Earth, and its solar system, must be remain stabilized or Perigee itself will be destroyed; and that stabilization is being threatened radically by climate change and ever-rising temperatures and sea levels. Life as we know it is on a stop-watch – Tick… Tick… Tick…
