When Nigel gets chucked off a dam, he thinks his time is up.

Vivian ? an alien from an ancient race that uses Earth's deep oceans as a retirement home ? rescues him and convinces him to join the Consensus.

Now all he has to do is give up his life on Earth.

But he can't abandon his birth planet when he learns that the Menace plans to attack. To stop the apocalypse, he must find his high school crush, rescue the daughter he never knew he had, and make the case to the Consensus that humanity is worth saving.
