"New approach to a fascinating controversy"
This fine, fast paced and exciting novel is also a new approach to the phenomena known collectively as unidentified flying objects, or UFOs. Vallee could rightly be called the world's foremost researcher and writer on the subject of sightings, stories of encounters and other observations. He has been equally interested though in the sociology, folklore and cults that have grown up around these elusive phenomena.



Stratagem is the story of a "close encounter" with an object emerging from the waters of the Amazon. A twelve year old boy drowns, and the survivors, the boy's father and his friend, are distraught and angry. These... More > two high-tech executives with ample resources, are first given lame explanations to prevent them from investigating further. When mysterious people start to chase them and then threaten, their grief and anger drive them to devise a stratagem, a complex charade, to force their tormentors to reveal themselves.



The climax involves a surprising explanation of the object's origin and intentions, and rewards the reader with a transcendent view of the true complexity of our world. Things are not what they seem. < Less
