TRIAL BY DECEPTION THE TRUTH DENIED by Kenneth G. Van Hoof. This book was written by the mystic's son who personally experienced many of the events described in this book about the Virgin Mary's apparitions to his mother, Mary Ann Van Hoof. There has been considerable confusion and deliberate obfuscation of the facts concerning the Necedah Apparitions and its mystic, Mary Ann Van Hoof. In previous years too much has been left in obscurity. It is the purpose of this book to clarify, define and defend this apparition of Mary and its mystic. The author has conducted years of in-depth research of this apparition and has amassed a considerable amount of data. This is the most definitive defense ever presented on this topic us­ing original letters, documents and articles to present an enlightening and solid case. This well documented research relates to the crisis in the Church, our prophetic future, and even to the in­famous Men-In-Black. It will become apparent to the discerning reader that after reading this book, there are forces in "high places" that sought to stamp out this apparition of Mary. A very relevant book for our times about one of the most persecuted and suppressed Marian apparition in history.
