Whether you believe humans are alone in the Universe or not matters little. You want to know the truth. Most people do. Surprisingly, the truth is in Plain Sight. It is right in front of you if you dare to see it. Understanding and believing in something bigger than us is the bedrock of humankind. What if the story you grew up with as a child is close to the truth, just not the absolute truth. Come along with me and explore a different version of the truth. You won't be disappointed. Meet Avalina, the spoiled debutante living the unfulfilled lifestyle of the rich and not-so-famous. Saree, her mother, does not like being in the public eye. Long ago, the truth passed from mother to daughter in the dead of night. This same quiet ritual brings us to the modern era of Saree and Avalina. Learn along with Avalina, the spoiled rich girl, the party girl, as she becomes the keeper of the truth. The passage of truth, hidden from all but the very keepers of knowledge themselves, is a truth few know. Join the enlightened few. Dare to be different. I was one of those young rebels who dared to ask their parents the tough questions. As an adult, I still do. I know this novel will draw both praise and fiery response. This story came about as a result of the very What-ifs I've asked myself for years. We all have done it, pondered the what and why of our existence.

An award-winning journalist investigates a story largely ignored by mainstream media but right there, in front of our eyes ... Are we not alone? The moment we have an answer to the question might have arrived. Award-winning investigative journalist Coulthart has been intrigued by UFOs since mysterious glowing lights were reported near New Zealand's Kaikoura mountains when he was a teenager. The 1978 sighting is just one of thousands since the 1940s, and yet research into UFOs is still seen by many as the realm of crackpots and conspiracy theorists. In 2020, however, after decades of denial, the US Department of Defense made the astonishing admission that strange aerial and underwater objects frequently reported and videoed by pilots and tracked by sensors are real, unexplained, and pose a genuine national security concern. Compelled to investigate, Coulthart has embarked on the most intriguing story of his career, speaking to witnesses, researchers, scientists, spies and defence and intelligence officials and insiders - to sift the truth from the conspiracy. Now in the US, with powerful new laws and a hardening of government resolve may well soon force the military and intelligence community to reveal what they knew about alleged UAP crash retrievals and secret reverse-engineering programs. Bizarre, sometimes mind-blowing and utterly fascinating, in this new edition of In Plain Sight , Coulthart explains why there is cause for optimism that 'the biggest story ever' might finally be about to break.
