The octopus Book

Unfortunately badly written and organized and full of easily noticed errors, this book discusses the death of independent journalist Danny Casolaro in 1991, who theoretically was writing a book about "the Octopus", an all encompassing conspiracy theory that linked together every hinky CIA or government hijink from the Kennedy Assassination to the Gulf War. Although it appeared that Casolaro might have been partially on to something about various subjects, Occam's razor definitely seems to apply here in my opinion. Casolaro's death doesn't seem particularly suspicious, although perhaps he wanted it to seem so. We're left with bizarre, incredible theories, conspiracies, and a tangled web of unrelated things that were woven together by circumstance. Not recommended. If someone could untangle the narrative and write something coherent about the whole thing, it would be an interesting book.
