Though the Heavens Should Fall (Espatier, book 1) - Nathan Smith - Bog

Danny is a gifted scientist in the making-that is, until he drops out of Cornell. Now, suddenly lost in the world that once felt so familiar, all he does is hide alone in his apartment, trapped in his own directionless thoughts. But this all changes when a string of strange text messages from an unknown source are sent to his phone, leading Danny to the resting place of an alien woman named Arras and into an interstellar revolution two centuries too late.
