Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Containment: Contractors, Spies, and the Hidden War to Capture Non-Human IntelligenceFor more than seventy-five years, the public has been told there is nothing to see. Weather balloons, misidentified aircraft, atmospheric illusions - the excuses have changed, but the denials have not. Behind the press conferences and carefully worded statements, a different story has unfolded: a secret, global effort to find, recover, and weaponize technology that did not originate on Earth.In Containment, investigative author Colton Reiss pulls back the curtain on that hidden world. Drawing on declassified documents, whistleblower testimony, obscure Cold War archives, and patterns buried in plain sight, this book reconstructs the covert crash-retrieval system that emerged after Roswell and quietly spread across continents, borders, and political regimes.From the deserts of New Mexico to Soviet-era test ranges, from NATO airfields to remote hangars run by private contractors, Containment follows the money, the hardware, and the bodies. What began as a single "flying disc" incident in 1947 evolved into a compartmentalized network of military units, intelligence cells, and deniable corporations tasked with doing one thing above all else: get there first. and keep the rest of the world in the dark.Inside this explosive investigation, you'll discover: The Roswell catalyst - how a single crash rewrote military doctrine and created the first secret retrieval mandate.Operation Paperclip's shadow side - why Nazi-era scientists and their exotic research mattered to early UFO programs.The Soviet and global response - parallel efforts in Moscow, Europe, and beyond to capture and copy the same anomalies.The rise of private contractors - how corporations, shell companies, and black projects took control of the most sensitive work.Black budgets and invisible money - the financial architecture that keeps Congress, auditors, and even presidents out of the loop.Inside the hangars - a closer look at secure facilities where wreckage is stored, tested, and reverse engineered.The biologics question - what insiders really mean when they talk about "non-human" remains and why that language is so carefully chosen.Media management and disinformation - how ridicule, planted stories, and controlled leaks shape what the public is allowed to believe.International cooperation and rivalry - secret agreements, quiet handoffs, and moments when allies became competitors.The future of secrecy - why recent hearings and "disclosure" efforts may reveal far less than they appear to.This is not a book of wishful thinking or recycled internet rumors. Containment treats the subject as a serious national security story, tracing how real-world institutions behave when confronted with something they cannot fully explain yet refuse to ignore. It shows how layers of classification, need-to-know silos, and contractor control have built a system that can continue operating even when elected leaders change and official policy shifts.Along the way, Colton Reiss introduces the retrieval teams, analysts, pilots, engineers, and case officers who inhabit this shadow ecosystem - people whose careers depend on staying invisible, even as their decisions shape what the rest of us are allowed to know.The question is no longer whether unexplained objects have crashed. The real question is who gets there first, what they take away, how they hide it, and what they are building in the dark while the rest of the world argues about semantics.Step inside the hidden war to capture non-human intelligence - and decide for yourself Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. …

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. What happens when the people who claim they were taken are no longer part of the conversation?For decades, the UFO abduction phenomenon has lived in the most uncomfortable corner of modern history. Not quite accepted, never fully disproven, endlessly mocked, and quietly pushed outside the boundaries of respectable discussion. Lights in the sky became news. Military footage became congressional testimony. UAPs became a matter of national security. But the people at the center of the oldest and most disturbing claims, the men, women, and children who say they were taken, examined, returned, and left to live with impossible memories, were left behind.The Taken brings them back into the room.A chilling investigation into the people behind the phenomenonIn this gripping investigative history, Colton Reiss traces the UFO abduction phenomenon from its earliest modern accounts to its place in the age of official UAP hearings, intelligence leaks, declassified programs, and renewed public fascination with the unexplained.This is not a book of easy answers. It does not ask readers to believe everything. It does not pretend every claim is proof. Instead, it does something far more powerful: it takes the record seriously.From the dark mountain road where Betty and Barney Hill lost two hours of their lives, to the Mississippi riverbank where two terrified shipyard workers were secretly recorded by a sheriff who expected to expose a hoax, to the Arizona forest where Travis Walton vanished for five days while his own crew was investigated for murder, The Taken examines the cases that shaped one of the strangest and most controversial subjects of the modern era.But this book goes beyond the famous names.Missing time. Impossible scars. Cold rooms. Dark eyes.It follows the deeper pattern: the bedroom paralysis at 3:14 a.m., the impossible scars, the missing time, the cold examination rooms, the children who drew the same dark-eyed figures, the experiencers who found one another only after years of silence, and the investigators, therapists, skeptics, journalists, and government officials who shaped the public meaning of what they reported.Hypnosis, false memory, Cold War secrecy, military intelligence, pop culture ridicule, recovered testimony, and the rebranding of UFOs into UAPs all become part of a larger story about belief, fear, power, and the fragile line between experience and evidence.The reports did not stop. The listening did.This is a book about what happens when people report something too strange to be believed, but too consistent to be ignored.It is also a book about silence.The silence of witnesses who learned that coming forward could cost them their marriages, careers, reputations, and peace of mind. The silence created by jokes that turned alleged victims into punchlines. The silence left behind when mainstream culture decided that lights in the sky could be discussed, but the people who said they were taken could not.For readers of serious UFO history, unexplained phenomena, government secrecy, alien contact, psychological mysteries, and cultural investigations, The Taken offers a chilling, deeply researched journey into one of the most disturbing questions of the modern age: What if the most important part of the UFO story was not the craft in the sky, but the people who say the phenomenon came for them?Whether you are a skeptic, a believer, or someone standing uneasily between the two, this book will pull you into the cold center of a mystery that has never fully gone away.Because the reports did not stop.The witnesses did not vanish.And the silence surrounding them may be the most revealing evidence o Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. …

What makes a person abandon a country, betray an intelligence service, steal a military aircraft, expose a secret weapons program, or walk into an embassy knowing there may be no way back?For some, defection was an act of conscience.For others, it was survival.For many, it was something far more complicated.THE MOMENT EVERYTHING CHANGEDA Soviet assassin enters a West Berlin police station and confesses to two murders carried out with a hidden poison weapon.A young North Korean pilot turns his MiG south and lands without warning at an American air base.A KGB officer refuses an assassination order and warns the intended victim.A dancer breaks from his guards at a Paris airport.A colonel arrives with military plans that could alter the balance of power.A scientist reveals the existence of plague factories his government insisted did not exist.A spy chief escapes with an archive capable of exposing agents, operations, and decades of deception.These were not ordinary refugees. They were insiders with access to guarded rooms, classified files, secret laboratories, military aircraft, intelligence networks, and the private machinery of authoritarian power.When they crossed the line, they carried more than information.They carried evidence.THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE SECRETSDEFECTORS tells the true stories of spies, assassins, pilots, diplomats, scientists, officers, performers, and political insiders who abandoned the systems that had trained, promoted, protected, and sometimes terrorized them.Their escapes were often dramatic, but the decision to leave could take years.Some planned quietly while rising through the ranks.Some acted after an order they could no longer obey.Some fled with documents hidden in luggage, vehicles, diplomatic pouches, or memory.Others arrived with nothing except a story that Western intelligence officers had to prove.Every defector presented the same urgent question: Were they telling the truth?Some defectors delivered intelligence of extraordinary value.Others were misunderstood, distrusted, imprisoned, returned, discredited, or drawn back toward the countries they had escaped.A few discovered that leaving the state did not mean the state had finished with them.ASSASSINS, AIRCRAFT, ARCHIVES, AND POISONYou will follow military pilots who crossed hostile airspace in stolen aircraft, intelligence officers who revealed assassination programs, diplomats who disappeared without their families, scientists who exposed biological weapons, and insiders whose testimony forced governments to confront crimes they had denied.The stories move through divided Berlin, Moscow, Seoul, Paris, Tokyo, Washington, London, Munich, and secret installations far beyond public view.They reveal specialized poison devices, covert surveillance, false identities, disputed confessions, secret interrogations, dangerous extractions, classified war plans, hidden archives, radioactive murder, and the devastating pressure placed on the families left behind.Yet this is not a simple collection of heroes and villains.Defection could be courageous, selfish, desperate, calculated, patriotic, treacherous, or all of these at once.The country receiving a defector might celebrate an act of freedom. The country abandoned might condemn treason, claim kidnapping, or attack the defector's credibility. Intelligence agencies could protect a source while doubting his motives. Governments could praise the information while concealing how it was obtained.Open DEFECTORS and enter a world where one decision could mean freedom, imprisonment, revenge, or death.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The First UFO Crash May Not Have Happened in RoswellFlorence, 1996.

Fourteen years before Roswell.If the papers are real, the most famous UFO story in modern history may not be the beginning at all.A Disc Falls in Mussolini's ItalyNear Magenta, west of Milan, something allegedly came down from the Alpine sky.No wings. No markings. No explanation.According to the strange dossier that surfaced decades later, Mussolini's regime moved quickly. The wreckage was seized. Witnesses were silenced.
