An alien landing station is discovered high on a mountaintop by two young boys, Jeffy and Jody, who were beginning their early summer vacation. They had left their dirt bikes by the pathway and climbed to the mountaintop only to discover a large military hangar and spaceships. After being abducted by two tall, gray beings, they were taken into the hangar and subjected to a strange controlling. They were then deposited back to their dirt bikes. In panic, the boys sped home to tell their parents. This led to action by the men of the near city, Hains. Jeff, the father of Jeffy and the chief of police, along with his deputies, confirmed that the young boys' story was true. They also learned that aliens can and would attack to protect themselves. The men watched in horror as one of their vehicles exploded into flames - then they saw a huge plume of smoke rise over Hains.

About the Author: Born in Ontario, when mailmen still drove horse and cutters to deliver mail in her area, and farmers still used horses to work their fields, Norma was the fifth child from hard-working parents who still remembered the First World War, the Depression, and then the Second World War. The children learned how to work and at the age of six, Norma was working in the potato field earning her own money during the summers. Her childhood was quite lonely as being the youngest by six years, she learned how to entertain herself and had a very imaginative mind. She learned to draw at a very early age and knew how to draw in 3D before she ever went to school at age six. Drawing was not at the top of the educational list in those days, but writing was. Her worst subject was always spelling, second was grammar, and third was math. All other subjects, she could draw pictures in in order to pass her tests. But her imagination was exploding in her head and she had to write. She soon began to enjoy it. Poetry was her first attempt at writing and according to her humble opinion, her poems were good. It came easy for her to put her feelings on paper. She finally began to write short stories, then moved onto novels, until she finally decided to publish and here it is. She had enjoyed writing The Invisible Visitors as the story never seems to slow down long enough to become boring, and her mind is racing on to a sequel to this book as fun as it might be.
