Publisher Description
IF YOU THOUGHT THAT THE X-FILES WAS ONLY FICTION, THINK AGAIN!
For as long as extraterrestrial and paranormal phenomena have been investigated, the official government response to any events deemed "otherworldly" or unexplainable has been well documented: DENIAL. Not because they aren't interested in UFOs, monsters, and psychic abilities -- but because they have their own secret agendas for using this knowledge.
In this thoroughly researched compendium of conspiracies and cover-ups, the remarkable findings that have been documented (and supposedly debunked) by the governments of the United States, Great Britain, and the former Soviet Union are finally revealed, including
• Attempts by the U.S. Air Force to build a fleet of nuclear-powered flying saucers...
• The British military's files on the Loch Ness monster and other mysterious beasts...
• The Cold War race between the CIA and the KGB to create the perfect psychic spy/assassin...
• The real story behind the enigmatic "Men in Black," who terrify UFO witnesses into silence...
For anyone who wants to know the truth -- or the truth behind the truth -- Strange Secrets is the ultimate resource to understanding exactly what the government doesn't want us to know -- and why they want to keep us in the dark.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Redfern and Roberts, both experienced writers on UFOs and the paranormal, preface their study of real-life X-files by admitting that"the nature of intelligence work requires agencies to obtain information on just about anything and everything that might conceivably have a bearing on national security." So it's no surprise that"documentation on the 'unknown' has been created and studied at an official level." The authors have uncovered such files from the U.S., British and former Soviet governments touching on alien visitations, the use of psychic spies and other strange subjects. A local vampire legend was used by the U.S. in the Philippines as part of a psy-ops program. The authors discuss reports that the British government convened a secret ministerial briefing to discuss the mysterious crop circles that had started appearing in the 1980s. And they explore the possibility that some supposed UFO sightings were actually of highly advanced, secret technology being tested by the U.S. government. This is a trove of entertaining stories for X-files fans and government skeptics.
