Gripping, First-Of-Its-Kind Dramatic Courtroom Novel Roswell: The Truth On Trial: The Evidence Speaks-You Decide Now Available On Amazon
Des Moines, Iowa, May 2025 – Christopher A. Johnston, J.D., a renowned trial attorney and Certified Civil Trial Specialist based at the Law Group of Iowa in Des Moines, has held a lifelong fascination with UFOs. This passion has resulted in the publication of his first novel, Roswell: The Truth on Trial: The Evidence Speaks – You Decide, now available for purchase on Amazon in paperback and Kindle formats. The novel has been described by D. Boeke, a Senior Researcher with the U.S. Department of Energy (Ret.), as, “The X-Files meets Law and Order!”
Johnston’s unique new book presents the following scenario: In July 1947, something certainly fell from the sky near Roswell, New Mexico. Some believe it was a UFO crash (along with alien bodies!) which launched the modern-day government cover-up of the extraterrestrial phenomenon many refer to as the Truth Embargo. Skeptics, on the other hand, have long believed it was nothing more than a weather balloon, the “official cover- up” story presented by the U.S. Military.
Says Johnston, “The Roswell mystery has been analyzed from nearly every angle for almost 80 years. Yet we are no closer to the truth today than members of the U.S. Military were on that summer day in New Mexico back in 1947 as they were retrieving a massive amount of scattered, metallic debris. Until now.”
From opening statements to jury deliberations, Johnston’s novel Roswell: The Truth on Trial brings the iconic “Roswell Incident” to life in a gripping, first-of-its-kind courtroom drama. In this groundbreaking format, the reader – as though a member of the juror – is tasked with weighing the evidence, evaluating testimony, and finally reaching his/her own conclusions and verdict.
Through the effective use of jury selection, opening statements, direct and cross-examinations, exhibits, and closing arguments, the story behind Roswell: The Truth on Trial unfolds in a way that immerses the reader within a true-to-life courtroom experience. Testimony is drawn from decades of real-life eyewitness interviews, sworn affidavits, and historical documents, with every question asked and answered pushing the mystery closer to resolution.
Said Stephen Bassett, a veteran UAP Disclosure Advocate and Founder of the Paradigm Research Group based in Washington, D.C., “Whether the reader is already a believer in the UAP phenomenon, a skeptic, or just sits somewhere in between, Chris Johnston’s new book Roswell: The Truth on Trial isn’t just a fresh approach to one of history’s greatest UFO mysteries. It’s a fascinating look at how jury trials are built to present a case for, and ultimately, to uncover nothing but the truth.”
