Samenvatting:

We are not alone. They are here. And there’s no going back. Perfect for fans of The Fifth Wave and the I Am Number Four series, Dark Energy is a thrilling stand-alone science fiction adventure from Robison Wells, critically acclaimed author of Variant and Blackout.

Five days ago, a massive UFO crashed in the Midwest. Since then, nothing—or no one—has come out.

If it were up to Alice, she’d be watching the fallout on the news. But her dad is director of special projects at NASA, so she’s been forced to enroll in a boarding school not far from the crash site. Alice is right in the middle of the action, but even she isn’t sure what to expect when the aliens finally emerge. Only one thing is clear: everything has changed.

She wanted to be a spectator. Instead, she’s on the front lines.

• UFO Crash: A ship the size of a city crash-lands in the American heartland, and for five long days, no one knows who—or what—is inside.
• Aliens in High School: Alice gets a front-row seat when survivors of the crash enroll in her elite boarding school, bringing the mystery right to her doorstep.
• First Contact Gone Wrong: With her NASA-director father sworn to secrecy, Alice is trapped between official stories and the terrifying truth of why the visitors are really here.
• An Action-Packed Survival Story: When a new, deadlier threat emerges, running for her life alongside the aliens she barely knows might be Alice’s only chance to survive.
