THEM began as a book about different kinds of extremists, but after Jon had got to know some of them – Islamic fundamentalists, neo-Nazis, Ku Klux Klansmen – he found that they had one oddly similar belief: that a tiny, shadowy elite rule the world from a secret room.

In THEM, Jon sets out, with the help of the extremists, to locate that room. The journey is as creepy as it is comic, & along the way Jon is chased by men in dark glasses, unmasked as a Jew in the middle of a Jihad training camp, & witnesses international CEOs & politicians participate in a bizarre pagan ritual in the forests of northern California.

THEM is a fascinating & entertaining exploration of extremism, in which Jon learns some alarming things about the looking-glass world of ‘them’ & ‘us’. Are the extremists on to something? Or has Jon become one of THEM?
