THE OBSERVER is a ground-breaking trilogy. An intricate weave of conspiracy thriller odyssey and confirmed scientific reality. Fact and fiction are blended into a striking pattern of parallels as Cristeau builds an atmosphere of escalating tension and alarm. Incisive and robust in its research this montage of high altruism and cold hard fact is a thought-provoking thriller of wide angles and long shadows. A treasure-house of information unearths a shocking truth. Protagonist, Professor Michael Hart, is an English mathematician and astronomer, teaching in Florida, in the summer of 1968. A brilliant scientific observer, he is the first man to unlock one of the solar system's most damning secrets. He presents his thesis to NASA. Alarm bells ring as his research is met with hostility and suspicion. He finds himself branded an intellectual communist agitator. And the focus of an FBI manhunt across the South. He escapes to Mexico where he meets American anthropologist, Dr. Paul Navarro of UCLA. Sensing Hart is a troubled man, Navarro introduces him to an ancient shamanic soul-searching ritual. Conducted by the local Indians of the Puebla highlands. After indulging in their hallucinogenic ceremony, Hart attains the power to remote-view top secret government files, undetected. His ongoing revelations are explosive and unthinkable. In 1969, as Richard Nixon comes to power in the White House, Hart discovers NASA and the US military industrial complex are controlled by a secret higher order. Behind Apollo's shining facade America is being transformed. Into a space-borne nuclear strike force. In doing so, it has unwittingly sown the seeds of the Armageddon. At the launch of Apollo 13, in April 1970, Michael Hart breaks cover. He risks his life in a bold act of heroism to warn the American public. But how will a nation mesmerized by Apollo's iconic profile and grand ambition, believe the remote cry of a fugitive outsider?The prelude to this saga becomes its most damning feature. In 1945, an invisible Phoenix rose from the ashes of the burnt out ruins of Nazi Germany's Third Reich. It soared west, where its poisonous talons took root in the rich virgin soils of post-war USA. With decisive victories in two theaters of war America is mesmerized by its own self-confidence. A confetti-covered nation stood spellbound as the silent clockwork of an unthinkable agenda was set in motion. A bizarre riddle beyond imagining, whose consequence will decree the final destiny of mankind-the Armageddon, and its hideous aftermath. January 1961: Departing speech of outgoing Republican President Dwight D. Eisenhower openly denounces of the spurious growing relationship between government and big business in the US. His thinly veiled words of warning are delivered to the American public fifteen years too late. May 25, 1961: America's 35th President, new frontiersman John F. Kennedy, throws down the gauntlet of challenge, making it clear to the entire world in his historic mission speech that the United States is intending to put a man on the moon "before decade's end," the President boldly states. His mesmerizing words ignite a nation to action. Massive federal funding is released, to green light the Apollo program. But Kennedy shows reluctance for the assault on Cuba. As well as the Vietnam War. He falls from grace, and is eliminated by a higher echelon of power. An evil entity that has covertly fashioned the US military industrial complex, and the federal government's secular authorities, namely the FBI, the Pentagon, the CIA, and NASA, into an aggressive Fourth Reich. One that deliberately fuels war and global conflict as the catalyst for its technological weapons development program. Its fear mongering agenda will ultimately reach beyond this world.
