When the Ornu came, they took Earth in a single night. Humanity never stood a chance. Now, they force us to crew their ships and fight their wars for them. They hold Earth hostage, and if we refuse to do their bidding, they’ll lay waste to our precious blue marble. Slaughtering the billions who live there. But when Captain Bill Henderson is sent to claim a small moon for his masters, he finds something they never accounted for.

At first glance all seems pleasant and benign, but there are secrets lurking about the small town, talk of foul cults and human sacrifice.

We like it because it was adopted in a time when Louisiana was much more leftist in caring for its people.
