For he had uncovered the greatest secret of the Pharos church, a secret that the church militia would kill to protect: that Earth's alien visitors had never really left.Luckily, Yan had also stumbled on another secret: that a legendary community of "witches" might also exist -- if if Yan could find them, their extraordinary memories might provide the means to vanquish Earth's mysterious masters at last...
