Synopsis Scavenger Hunt by : Robert Ferrigno

Philip Marlow and Lew Archer would recognize a kindred spirit in Jimmy Gage, reporter for SLAP magazine, troublemaker by trade and inclination, and the hero of Robert Ferrigno’s sinuous new crime novel. While taking part in a Hollywood scavenger hunt, Jimmy meets Garret Walsh, a bad-boy movie maker in the truest sense: He’s just been released from prison after serving seven years for the murder of a teenaged girl. But Walsh claims he was framed and is writing a screenplay to prove it. He wants Jimmy to help him peddle it, sight unseen. The next time Jimmy sees the director, he’s floating face-down in a koi pond and “The Most Dangerous Screenplay in Hollywood” has disappeared. Is Walsh a casualty of bad habits or has somebody crossed him off a list? And is Jimmy next? Combining nerve-shredding suspense and heat-seeking satire, Scavenger Hunt is an addictive read.

Synopsis The Rendlesham File by : Andrew Pike

The Rendlesham File: Britain's Roswell?The Rendlesham File: Britain's Roswell? is a scientific investigation into the possible cause of the Rendlesham Forest Incident of December 1980 involving UFO sightings in and around Rendlesham Forest between the twin airbases of RAF Bentwaters and RAF Woodbridge in Suffolk, England. It examines the likely cause of balls of light and a triangular craft that appeared in and around the area seen by the airmen of the twin bases and local civilians. Following a review of the 1974 Berwyn Mountains incident in the summer of 1980 attention was drawn to strange plasma-like balls of light seen at Rendlesham Forest during the following Christmas. What at first appeared to be a simple case of possible earthlights, meteorological and aerial plasma phenomena developed into an investigation which included microwave technology, radar, electromagnetic influences on the human body including the brain, black budget advances in mind control and exotic aviation including stealth and anti-gravity technologies. Many of the black projects examined held answers to the causes with developments in the investigation coming as a result of FBI and CIA files. There was also evidence from astronomical, geophysical and electromagnetic research going back to the late 1800s. This led to significant clues from scientific advances during World War Two with further answers also coming from the 1950s in plasma physics and astronomy, especially plasma cosmology right up to the present day. Some of these advances were also made by scientists working alone away from mainstream science as a result of the taboo nature of their research. This book gathers together these diverse areas of research to show that more than just earthlights occurred that Christmas and in doing so highlights black projects and mainstream scientific research that are significant to many other areas of ufology and other paranormal subjects. It was discovered that everything witnessed during the Rendlesham Forest Incident was seen before, either in and around the forest, or around the world before and since the event. This allowed the scientific investigation to follow the science through to possible answers. In doing so it became obvious that something had heightened and brought together many phenomena that Christmas which would otherwise be seen separately or to a much reduced intensity. Military secrecy and a general view by the Ministry of Defence that this was of no defence significance proved to be wrong and through the black projects and declassified paperwork it was shown that this view by the powers-that-be might be part of the cover. Although much of the scientific conclusions were in place by 1989 developments and further research unfolded over the following decades appearing with an eerie habit of serendipity. These added strength to the conclusions already established. To date this is the only extensive civilian investigation into the science of arguably the most famous sightings in UFO history. The Rendlesham File is the first book written about these events by a UK academic. Andrew Pike is a qualified astrophysicist and a Fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society. The Rendlesham File takes an unbiased scientific look at the UFO sightings in question and out puts all of the information under the microscope. Is there a scientific explanation for these UFO sightings or are they truly the result pf something that is yet beyond our scientific capabilities? Open The Rendlesham File and discover the answers for yourself.
