Where reality blends with dreams, through writing, artwork and humor

Gail Cochran is a law enforcement Ranger for the National Park Service in Southern Nevada. She gets an anonymous tip one night that a woman has been killed in Area 51, notorious for UFO sightings. She investigates and finds the body, then sees beautiful blue lights hovering in the sky, drawing her away from the scene, in a kind of rapturous stupor for an unknown period of time. When she gets back, the body is gone.
A chance meeting with Trenton Russell gets the CIA involved and things go from bad to worse. A simple murder case leads the pair on a route of twists and turns involving national security, for it turns out, the murdered woman was an investigative journalist, who had discovered a plot to sell alien technology to the Chinese. The pair fight for their lives trying to unravel the corruption surrounding the UFO, from congressmen to the Pentagon.

Dear reader

We are living in the most precarious times of the last 50 years. Right-wing authoritarianism is threatening to unseat democracy right here in the United States. It is as simple as it is terrifying: What we do now will define the future of America for generations to come. We need sensible intelligent voices to step up and be heard. The Naked Druid is a newsletter dedicated to finding insightful analysis and bringing them to the attention of the public. We ask that you support our work, by becoming a paid subscriber so our kids will grow up in a better world, not dystopia. Thomas Jefferson said it best right in the beginning of our country, around 1789.

“Democracy only works in a well informed and educated populace.”
