And not all eyes that are watching are friendly...

When Ben is kidnapped, Mesmo spares no effort to find him. He thinks the rebellious Wise Ones and mysterious UFO sightings may have something to do with Ben's disappearance. But when he goes to investigate, he uncovers an earth-shattering threat instead - one that could cost him his life.
