In 1947 an unusual aircraft crashed in New Mexico, scattering strange debris unlike anything previously found on Earth, including three alien corpses. The US government engineered a cover-up, but then even more extraordinary events occurred. The author also wrote Communion and The Wolfen.

“In the eyes of the others, those who met them saw ourselves, and there were demons there”
Fiction based on fact or maybe what might have happened directly after the Roswell crash in 1947. This story will be familiar if you've watched X-Files for Taken (Spielberg), in fact some of it is so similar to Taken, I'm surprised Strieber didn't get a credit.
Strieber has real knack of writing the most mundane prose, then he hits you with a line so devastatingly chilling you have to put the book down. There are moments of that here, just not as many of them as Communion. Decent read if you like Alien conspiracy stuff and the ending is REALLY trippy.
