Nowhere Island Kara Piazza

Finding proof of alien life. Check.

Finding the aliens... a little harder.

When the mysterious Henry left Mortimer, his bulldog, in the care of veterinarian Kaly Aiton, her life changed in ways she could never imagine. To protect her new found knowledge that aliens do exist from falling into the wrong hands, Kaly and her best friend are whisked off on a private jet... to a clandestine island... with a secret laboratory... and the prospect of romance.
The 'wrong hands' belong to Pastern, a nefarious corporation with far reaching resources that will go to any lengths to find Kaly. Pastern's interest is less about exploring new worlds and new civilizations and more about profits and probing.

The race is on to be the first humans to make contact with alien life.

Kaly and her new scientist friends are on track to the ground-breaking extraterrestrial encounter when things go horribly wrong and the unthinkable happens. Suddenly, winning a race isn't as important as protecting a race.

Follow Kaly to NOWHERE ISLAND, the sequel to THE MALADROIT, and continue the story of the Boston veterinarian who is proficient in her professional life but accident prone after hours.
