Conspiracy

Did QAnon truly believe that Donald Trump was the second coming of the messiah? Were the moon landings really filmed in a studio in Delaware? Would British scientists really test sarin on young volunteers and tell them it was research for a cure for colds? Even decades later, no-one's telling the whole story.

Conspiracies and cover-ups, real or imagined, have shaped our world. Now leaked cables and declassified papers are rewriting the history of our times. More information must be good, but how do you tell truth from fiction?

In this fresh, readable book, Ian Shircore cuts through the fog and misinformation to deliver a balanced analysis of the key facts behind the unsettling suspicions that litter our recent past. Today's new evidence—from WikiLeaks, freedom of information requests and declassified archives—has solved some classic mysteries. Yet it raises more questions than ever about the assassinations of the 1960s, the dirty secrets of the late 20th century and the earth-shaking events of recent years.

Conspiracy invites readers to explore these tantalising ideas with an open mind, questioning what we once thought was certain and uncovering the threads that continue to weave through our contemporary history.
