Book 4

Our Town

by Eric Elfman

Published 9 July 1997
The fourth in a stylish new series of novelizations of classic episodes from the phenomenally successful cult TV show The X-Files created by Chris Carter. FBI agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully investigate the eerie unsolved mysteries the FBI want handled quietly but quickly, before the public finds out what's really out there...and panics. The cases filed under 'X'. Good People, Good Food. That's the motto of Dudley, Arkansas, home of the famous Chaco Chicken factory. But recently there have been signs of foul play at the poultry processing plant. Employees are disappearing faster than you can say 'finger lickin' good'. When agents Mulder and Scully are called in to investigate, they find the remaining townsfolk in suspiciously good health. In fact, no one in Dudley ever seems to age. Scully's determined to uncover the truth about the town - but if she's not careful, she might lose her head over the secret ingredients in Mr Chaco's grisly recipe for youth.
