Moonfire. Children in the Lake, #2

The discovery of a partially decomposed human female on a wilderness mountain trail sets off a series of deadly events when it is suspected that she may not be completely human. When a bootleg thumb drive containing photographs of the victim fall into sheriff Seth Ferguson's hands, he and his girlfriend, Lilly Neptune are thrust headlong into a lethal game of cat and mouse. At a rural New Hampshire home, the attempted assassination of a mysterious young woman results in the deaths of seven members of an ultra-secret U.
S. Government shadow group. Meanwhile, at a secret government research facility north of Arrowhead Lake, experiments on an ancient extraterrestrial object are unraveling everything humans thought they knew about the makeup of the universe. Hall has combined real and theoretical science with high-octane action and Native American lore to create this rousing adventure tale of good versus evil.
