Area 53

Have you ever wondered if an alien UFO really crashed at Roswell? Do you suspect that its advanced technology has been reverse-engineered, giving rise to the out-of-this-world innovations we see today? What about the crew? Did any survive the crash? Were they truly aliens, or could they have been something entirely different – perhaps the subjects of the ultimate black-op?

You’ve always known that the government has been covering up the truth, haven’t you? Just as you’ve realized that the story has been kept secret all this time for a reason. But are you certain you know what that reason is? Maybe it’s time to think again.

In Area 53, you’ll be invited to critically re-assess all those conspiracy theories that have been the subject of countless books and TV programs over the years. With a fresh perspective and eye-opening revelations, this book will challenge your beliefs and make you question everything you thought you knew about the Roswell incident and its aftermath.

Born in the village of Moore in the Borough of Halton, located midway between Runcorn and Warrington in Cheshire, England, where his father was a licensed victualler, Richard de Mora gave up a promising career with the Mersey Ferries to follow his dream of being a session musician at Abbey Road. He never actually played his guitar in any Beatles’ sessions, though he often claimed that he had.

Tiring of the hand-to-mouth existence of a poorly-paid session musician in London, he returned to Liverpool and had a range of lucrative jobs in local attractions in the city’s growing tourist industry. These included trainee crocodile-handler at a local adventure park; specialist scouse-chef at a Pier Head hostelry; and mushroom forager in Sefton and Prince’s Parks, where he also worked as a tennis coach. During most of this time, he attended creative writing classes at local colleges and wrote several quite successful professional texts and guidebooks. Now, he’s decided to write fiction and it’s up to you to decide how well that’s turned out.
