Synopsis

Fergus is back on Earth at last, trying to figure out how to live a normal life. However, it seems the universe has other plans for him. When his cousin sends him off to help out a friend, Fergus accidently stumbles across a piece of an ancient alien artifact that some very powerful people seem to think means the entire solar system is in danger. And since he’s the one who found it, they’re certain it’s also his problem to deal with.With the help of his newfound sister, friends both old and new, and some enemies, too, Fergus needs to find the rest of the artifact and destroy the pieces before anyone can reassemble the original and open a multidimensional door between Earth and a vast, implacable, alien swarm. Problem is, the pieces could be anywhere on Earth, and he’s not the only one out searching.

Goodreads review by Spad53 on November 21, 2024

The third book in the Finder Chronicles. I thought it was the last, but there is now a fourth one. And a good thing too, because there were too many unanswered questions at the end. To be honest the end was a bit of a mess. It wasn’t quite as good as the previous books; it felt a tiny bit uninspired......more

So yeah, bit of a confession to start us off here dudes. I didn’t read the second book in this series, Driving the Deep.
