Independence Day (ID4) Silent Zone

Last year’s blockbuster movie ID4 hit # 1 at the box office, and with good reason. Independence Day captured the imaginations of audiences around the world. To celebrate the anniversary of its release, here is the authorized novel of the cover-up, where it all began. It begins after the alien invaders are downed and teams are sent out to find survivors. What is found, however, are some personal belongings of Dr. Brackish Okun, head scientist of Area 51. Okun’s story is amazing, yet completely believable. It begins in the 1970s when this CalTech genius arrives at Area 51 to work with the National Security Agency (NSA) and the CIA on the study of a downed spaceship, retrieved from Roswell, New Mexico. But there is much more to the job than Okun realized. Soon, he begins to suspect a massive government cover-up that has succesfully buried all evidence of alien visitiation throughout the years – a cover-up in which Okun is now an unwilling participant. Okun’s perseverance leads him to the truth behind the studies of Area 51, the government’s fears of an alien invasion, and a mysterious encounter in the Mexican desert, know as “La Manta de Silencia”: The Silent Zone.
