The novel “Teleport” by Joshua T. Calvert was published for the first time in 2022. It’s the first book in the Teleport series.

A drilling operation on the bottom of Lake Maracaibo is thrown into crisis when a completely abnormal storm breaks out. The investigation into the magnetic anomalies leads to the discovery of what is clearly an artifact that is estimated to be around 400,000 years old.

James Hamilton is a negotiator who works in life-or-death situations when he’s picked up by a military team that takes him to a base where the alien artifact was transported. He’s convinced to work as a sort of babysitter for the international group of scientists who are studying the artifact. Everyone’s job gets complicated when the scientists manage to enter an internal chamber of the artifact and discover that it’s a teleportation system.
