From the Publisher
The United Council of Developing Worlds, commonly referred to as the Council, was formed out of the galactic ravages of war and is based upon the charter to guide planets along in their development to ensure their peaceful coexistence in the galaxy, thereby alleviating the need for violence through aggression and expansion. However. the Leader of the Council, Copolla, has his own ideas for the organization. His last attempt with Earth resulted in the empowerment of Adolf Hitler and the secret placement of alien agents on the planet. He must hide the fact of the production of hybrid human and alien offspring, strictly forbidden by Council law.
Fifty-four years later, Copolla has surprisingly dictated that Earth must have two representatives on the Council and he has chosen them personally, Greg Carlson and Sarah Ferguson. He sends his most successful initial contact agent and closest rival, Leumas, to indoctrinate them. Unbeknownst to Leumas, he is an innocent partner of the diabolical plot Copolla has devised to destroy the humans and ensure Leumas' failure that will ultimately carry the sentence of Council servitude on Earth for a long time.
With Leumas out of the way, Copolla will begin his transition of the peaceful organization of the Council, to one of conquest and supreme domination
