Book Review: A hard-hitting story
Summary: 5 Stars
A handful of aliens stranded on earth and awaiting rescue reside in a stone city hidden in a mountain range - and they're running out of time. They've assimilated as a source of cheap labor to the human world - but rescuers arrive to change their enclave and will introduce both danger and romance into their quest for survival and the path home in a hard-hitting story highly recommended for any science fiction fan or library strong in science fiction novels.
