Communion: A True Story (1987) is a book by American ufologist and horror author Whitley Strieber. It is based on the purported experiences of Strieber, who underwent a feeling of "lost time" and terrifying flashbacks. Budd Hopkins later hypnotized the author and suggested his account pointed to an alleged encounter with aliens. Communion was a nonfiction best seller for six months in 1987. The book was adapted as the 1989 film Communion, directed by Philippe Mora and starring Christopher Walken as Strieber and Lindsay Crouse as his wife Anne.

Billy

This is an unauthorized story about the early years of Evangelist Billy Graham's ministry. The narrative is ostensibly told in 2001 by his dying friend, Charles (Chuck) Templeton, a Canadian evangelist who preached with Billy Graham in the forties, only to lose his faith, eventually declaring himself agnostic. After Templeton had suffered his loss of his faith, he challenged Graham to prove the Bible was true and if weren't, to repudiate his ministry. Graham met the challenge on his knees and obviously prevailed. Although there is a lot of admitted literary license taken in this account, including descriptions of Peretti-style devils and demons, the story encourages believers to meet challenges to their faith head-on.

Die Ermordung John F. Kennedys am 22.11.1963 erschüttert die Welt. Das Entsetzen scheint grenzenlos, und doch ahnt die Menschheit nicht, wie nah sie am endgültigen Abgrund steht. Eine fremdartige Macht bemächtigt sich Washingtons wichtigster Entscheidungsträger und setzt alles daran, die Welt ins Chaos zu stürzen. Mit einem Schlag sollen alle wichtigen Staatsoberhäupter der zivilisierten Welt ausgelöscht werden. Der undurchsichtige J. Edgar Hoover mit seinem FBI und Robert Kennedy sind ebenso in die Affäre verstrickt wie "Majestic 12", das geheime Forschungsprogramm der amerikanischen Regierung zur Aufklärung extraterrestrischer Aktivitäten. Der junge Majestic-Agent John Loengard gerät zwischen die Fronten. Als er das ganze Ausmaß der außerirdischen Verschwörung begreift, ist es fast zu spät...
