Jordan Ackerman garnered degrees in criminal and anomalistic psychology at a very young age. Yet rather than working as a consultant for the FBI, he opted to serve as a special agent where he could be more engaged in bringing criminals to justice. He loves his work, but the untimely death of his parents turns his world upside down. In a mysterious twist of events, Jordan is asked to head up the Hostage Negotiation Team dispatched to investigate rumors of supernatural activity in the small town of Belmont, Kansas. As an anomalistic psychologist, he rejects paranormal phenomena, but what he discovers could very well mean the undoing of an unknown race of people and possibly the destruction of earth. With this new knowledge in hand, it becomes a race against time. Jordan's investigations will take him into new and uncharted realms of extraterrestrial psychology. He must find a group of people called the Ergonians and help them overcome their trauma and mental illness before they destroy themselves and others with them. Meantime, he must also contend with another group intent on wiping out all Ergonians. Alien Dissonance brings together science fiction, psychology, mystery, treachery, romance, and irony that lead readers into a dissonant experience of their own.
