It is the winter of 1923, and in the
Warwickshire countryside, there is great excitement about a series of
ghostly sightings which have been seen by hundreds of people. Everyone
is talking about it, and the local papers are speculating about these
“ghosts”. But are they ghosts? Described as bright multi-colored lights,
with the power to illuminate buildings and to fly at height before
disappearing at fantastic speeds, are they not in fact unidentified
flying objects? In The Lights Upon the Hills, Richard
Rokeby has researched an important mass UFO event that is little known
amongst the UFO community. The story is set in the mysterious Burton
Dassett hills, an area which has a rich and fascinating history. Within
this gripping story, there is a series of significant hills, an
important and secretive military base, and a beautiful church that could
hold an incredible secret. Presenting the argument with enormous
persuasiveness, The Lights Upon the Hills explores the individual accounts and the historical and scientific information behind this incredible event.
