The Grays

the long version

Drawing from a lifetime of research and his own experiences, Strieber, author of Communion, offers up a fictional account of the conspiracy behind the alien presence on Earth while also giving us a startling look inside the alien mind. Meet the Three Thieves, a group of Grays assigned to duty in a small Kentucky town. They have been preparing a child for generations. Innocent Conner Callaghan will face the ultimate terror as he struggles to understand who he has been bred to become, and what he must do to save humanity.--From publisher description.
