Synopsis
A science-fiction adventure that weaves together over 50 years of alien abductions into the story of three families' experiences. Randall Keys is a World War II fighter pilot who learns that the strange lights he saw in the night sky while on a mission over Germany weren't simply "marsh gas" from swamps. Kate Keys, Randall's wife, is forced to raise their son alone as Randall's struggle to cope with his abduction experience drives him further away from his family. Owen Jones, a ruthless, young Army officer, sees the Roswell crash as an opportunity to jumpstart his career.
