The Broker

A desperate man can overlook warning signs.

“Hello?”
“Is this Charles Haley?”
“Yeah!” Charles said loudly, trying to talk over the construction noise.
“My name is Emanuel Smith. I am an artificial intelligence sent by an alien species to establish a trading relationship with the people of your planet. I am calling to offer you the position of being our local broker.”
“Great!” Charles replied, thankful for the much-needed job offer.

Too bad it was so noisy in the parking lot. Charles missed the part about AI and alien species.

When he realizes what he has signed up for, the choice becomes even more difficult. Should he accept the opportunity and move forward, or back out and put his family at risk? But he was already in too deep. And by the time he discovers he has put the entire planet at risk, it was far too late.

A Breath of Fresh Air

Nice to discover a new author and story line. I enjoyed the premise and the way the story developed and it had some twists and turns. I am listening to another of the author's books which I am enjoying also.

A pleasant surprise.

The AI narration was a bit difficult to follow at times, but I still enjoyed the story. I'm eagerly awaiting book two.
