It spent the previous seventy years making sure you would not believe it.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eLies Above\u003c\/em\u003e, cybersecurity researcher and forensics expert David A. Burkett builds the documented case for how that happened, and to whom. For seventy years the Pentagon has publicly dismissed UFOs while privately tracking objects with capabilities far beyond our own, craft that operate by principles our best physicists still consider theoretical. This is not a book about belief. It is a book about documented evidence, and about the machinery of denial that ran for three generations: the ridicule manufactured by committee, the investigations built to debunk rather than discover, and the sworn testimony to Congress that does not survive contact with the record.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBurkett traces the pattern from the first cover stories of the late 1940s to the present day. Project Sign and Project Grudge. The Robertson Panel that turned mockery into policy. Project Blue Book, built to look away. Nuclear missiles going offline over Malmstrom while the public was told there was nothing to see. The 2004 USS Nimitz encounter the Navy could not explain and would not discuss. And in 2023, an intelligence officer named David Grusch testifying under oath that the United States retains craft it did not build. The thread connecting them is not a single secret but a method: a cover-up that has grown more dangerous than the truth it conceals, subverting democratic oversight and hiding a reality with consequences for everyone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat sets \u003cem\u003eLies Above\u003c\/em\u003e apart is its refusal to ask for your trust.

Author David A. Burkett tracks nation-state threat actors for a living and wrote the first published white paper on the Detection as Code methodology. Here he turns that same discipline on the public record, applying the standards of proof used to expose hostile actors hidden in data to a seventy-year history of official deception.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRigorously sourced and built to withstand scrutiny, \u003cem\u003eLies Above\u003c\/em\u003e is both an indictment of a cover-up finally coming apart and a guide to the disclosure now underway.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Alan Burkett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798218813086\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lies Above\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/26\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 600\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.74lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.21d","brand":"David Alan Burkett","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48874763944191,"sku":"9798218813086","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/lies-above-david-alan-burkett-9798218813086","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
