White Queen

A tough, intense, funny, and horrifying look at an alien invasion of Earth about fifty years from now, White Queen begins deceptively quietly, in a bar in a crumbling African nation where Johnny Guglioli, an American journalist in exile, is trying to exorcise his demons and regain access to the international news network. He may just have a way: the girl who has been following him around isn't a human being - she's an alien come to Earth with others of her kind to settle. And she is willing to be interviewed. But who will believe it? And another reporter, Braemar Wilson, is also on the trail, and insinuates herself into partnership with Johnny.
Suddenly all three are swept up into a worldwide whirlwind of events, a complex and deadly storm of sex, politics, and betrayal. A confusion of motives and a conflagration of feelings drives the narrative forward to its stunning conclusion.
On its original appearance in Britain, White Queen was nominated for the prestigious Arthur C. Clarke award and was selected for one of the first annual James Tiptree Jr. Memorial Awards, certifying Jones as one of the most important feminist writers in science fiction.
