Hole In The Sky

I saw my husband reading Hole In The Sky (#1,346) by Daniel H. Wilson, and the cover intrigued me.  Think alien contact, but from an indigenous point of view.  Dr. Wilson, who has quite the impressive resume and is a Cherokee member himself posits the idea that the Mound Builders who populated the North American continent with many of their strategically located sites had some connection to a race beyond our stars.  Where did they go when an obviously thriving culture to when it mysteriously vanished centuries ago?

There's code breaking, family drama and mayhem enough to keep the reader glued to the book through the last page.  I don't want to give away the book's ending.  Let me just say that I personally am not planning to visit Oklahoma any time soon!  An unexpected find.
