The Visitor

This is the story of a little android robot stranded on Earth for three years. He is the pilot of a shuttle taking aliens from the mothership to the Earth's surface. He is left behind when the mothership unexpectedly leaves. He eventually ends up unconscious on my patio. I take him inside my (Bob Anderson's) man cave and quickly learn he has the ability to make himself invisible. Book One chronicles my efforts to introduce the robot-who I call OG- to the world without the government seizing him under the cover of national security. I enlist the aid of two prominent Washington journalists. We hope to do a grand reveal before the press of the world, but the FBI finds out about OG, and the chase is on. We try to stay one step ahead while creating a Plan B on the fly. This begins a saga which includes an aborted nuclear war, a real intergalactic war with evil aliens, and ends with Earth joining a powerful galactic Federation. Book Two describes the momentous changes that come to Earth as a result of Federation membership. This is a good read with tons of tantalizing questions for the future.
