(Note from Peter)
Born of another world and raised as an ordinary boy, Sam Stanton was never meant to live an ordinary life.
Delivered to Earth as an infant and adopted by loving parents, Sam grows up unaware that he is the product of a distant civilization’s desperate experiment—an experiment designed to confront humanity’s growing descent into crime and corruption. On his eighteenth birthday, the truth is revealed: Sam has been chosen as a guardian, trained and tested for a mission that will one day place the fate of countless lives in his hands.
Sixteen years later, deemed ready by his creators, Sam is granted extraordinary abilities—including invisibility and an advanced aircraft capable of breathtaking speed. As disasters strike across the United States, a mysterious savior emerges. The public knows him only as Guardian—a faceless hero, a symbol of hope, and a national legend.
But Guardian’s greatest challenge lies not in natural catastrophes, but in the shadows of Los Angeles. When Sam witnesses a brutal drug transaction near the Bel-Air Country Club, his mission collides with human consequence. A woman wanders into the crime scene and is gravely injured—then saved by Guardian. Now a target of ruthless criminals, she becomes someone Sam must protect… and someone he never meant to care for.
As danger closes in and emotions deepen, Sam is forced to confront the ultimate conflict: can a man sworn to secrecy, born for duty, afford to follow his heart?
A gripping blend of science fiction, suspense, and forbidden romance, this novel asks what it truly means to be human—when saving the world may cost everything.
