Pagan’s Veil

A shocking secret. An Earth-shattering government conspiracy. Can a young journalist expose the truth before she pays the ultimate price?

Washington, 1952: When Edna Drake receives an anonymous tip revealing the President’s covert UFO research, she throws caution to the wind to chase the story.

She knows it’ll rattle powerful cages as a front-page splash but she’s out to prove herself and she’s willing to risk anything to claim the scoop.

As she makes waves by relentlessly questioning high-ranking officials, Drake has no idea of the danger she’s provoking.

President Truman’s off-book troubleshooter is tasked with doing whatever it takes to stop her — in the name of national security.

But the facts are so mind-blowing she can’t let go, even when she’s directly in the line of fire.

Can Edna Drake write history’s most sensational headline before she’s buried in the obituaries?

Based on actual events in the skies over the US Capitol.

Pagan’s Veil is the riveting opener in the Verus Foundation sci-fi series. If you like brassy heroines, snappy dialogue, jaw-dropping conspiracies and history reimagined, you’ll love Matt Eaton’s classy noir thriller.
