An advanced humanoid civilization resides in a protected realm
known as Agartha and have existed on the Earth for millennia.
Watching our progress as a species from afar, their ancient laws
forbid them from intervening in our affairs. When the first atomic
bomb is detonated, they choose to reveal themselves with an offer
to share their technology on the condition that we forego our
warlike ways. They choose James Forrestal, the first US Secretary
of Defense as their emissary to deliver this message. But some in
the government are skeptical of their message of peace, seeing
nuclear weapons as our only protection against them. Set in the
late 1940s, humankind stands at a crossroads as a civilization,
should we join with the Agarthans and abandon our view of accepted
history and cherished beliefs or is there an ulterior motive to
their offer?
