After the Saucers Landed by Douglas Lain
Published by Night Shade Books, August 2015
Publisher's Description:
“When the alien gets around to unzipping her jumpsuit it’ll be impossible to see what’s underneath.”
UFOlogist Harold Flint is heartbroken and depressed that the aliens 
that have landed on the White House lawn appear to be straight out of an
 old B movie. They wave to the television cameras in their sequined 
jumpsuits, form a nonprofit organization offering new age enlightenment,
 and hover their saucers over the streets of New York looking for 
converts.
Harold wants no part of this kitschy invasion until one of the 
aliens, a beautiful blonde named Asket, begs him to investigate the 
saucers again and write another UFO book. The aliens and their mission 
are not as they seem.
Asket isn’t who she seems either. Tracking down her true personality 
leads Harold and his cowriter through a maze of identity and 
body-swapping madness, descending into paranoia as Harold realizes that 
reality, or at least humanity’s perception of it, may be more flexible 
than anyone will admit.
After the Saucers Landed is a deeply unsettling experimental
 satire, placing author Douglas Lain alongside contemporaries like Jeff 
VanderMeer and Charles Yu as one of his generation’s most exciting and 
challenging speculative fiction voices.
