When paramedics, Ulysses Jones and Charles Crosby, were called to Graceland, the home of Elvis Presley, the King of Rock and roll, they didn’t know what to expect.
After being directed upstairs by a bodyguard, they found a man lying on the bathroom floor, surrounded by a group of people.
Elvis’s girlfriend, Ginger Alden, as well as his road manager and close friend, Joe Esposito, were amongst them.
The man lay on his back with pajama bottoms down around his knees and his top open exposing dark blue, almost black, folds of cold flesh.
Jones immediately dropped to his knees to check for signs of life—he found none.
Afterwards, both paramedics would tell their captain they didn’t recognize the man as Elvis. In actual fact, they went as far as to say the dead man definitely wasn’t Elvis. They were warned to keep that information to themselves.
This was the beginning of the conspiracy theories that have spanned decades.
Being raised as a kid by Parents who loved Elvis, his music was always being played and all his movies were watched on repeat quiet often. I like millions of others was shocked and saddened by his death, and believed until now that he was dead.... BUT this book has just put my mind into overdrive, with the what if’s ? My eyes have been open to other possibilities that has me re-thinking... Lee has written this amazing conspiracy theory book, having me wanting to know more....I highly recommend it.

Elvis the King of Rock N Roll. Growing up I like millions of other young ladies fell in love with Elvis his music and movies. Needless to say when it was announced that he had died I was heartbroken.
Over the years I have always wondered if he really died or if it was because he was tired of never having any peace.
This book is has given me reason to believe that Elvis could still be alive. It has really made me want to take a closer look at what might have happened. I love a good mystery and digging for hidden facts.
Lee Beckett has written an excellent book and if you like or love Elvis or just a mystery buff, I highly recommend this book.
Wow! I had never questioned whether Elvis was really dead or possibly alive before. Now? I still don't know, but boy, is there some intriguing evidence out there to suggest he may still be alive and this book has certainly made my mind whirl with questions. I love Lee Beckett's writing style, a fabulous debut book. Highly recommended.
Do you believe the one and only, true King of Rock and Roll is alive? Could he really deceive the world and stay hidden for over forty years, fooling us all?
I’ve asked myself these questions many times over the years.
While turning the pages, I was brought back to my memories of Elvis and the circumstances behind his sudden passing. Lee Beckett has opened the door to the possibility that Elvis did indeed fake his own death and what the motivation may have been behind the deception.
Starting with a bit of known background, mixed with details of Presley’s life I was unaware of, left little cracks in the hard set line that Elvis Aron Presley died on August 16, 1977. The way Lee Beckett has laid out the facts and possibility of Elvis being alive, allows the reader to come to their own conclusion.
Will the mystery behind Elvis Presley's death or disappearance ever be revealed? I don’t know, but I can say this book has me wanting to do some investigating of my own.
Lee Beckett has written a book which is entertaining, thought provoking and one I recommend everyone read.
It didn't take long for me the breeze through this book. BIG Elvis fan here (even though I was only 3 years old when he passed away) My Dad, God rest his soul was a huge fan as well (I guess that is where I picked it up from). I remember as a child my dad renting VHS Elvis movies.
Okay, so now about the book.......WOW!! I have been intrigued for years about Elvis (Aron/Aaron) Presley and if he is still alive or did not pass to be with our Lord on that faithful day August 16, 1977. This book gives so many details as to why he may have left the entertainment industry under circumstances unknown but also many ideas/speculations that others have, that seem valid, and others are a little farfetched for me (like Elvis may have had 3 brothers). This book will make you think, could he have really moved on to something different and not have left this world so young? You decide.
He was a superstar in every way. He could sing like no other, he could act, he believed in God and had faith that could move mountains, not to mention his good looks. It seemed he had it all, a beautiful wife and daughter, luxuries (cars, planes, etc.) diehard fans, and more! In my opinion he was tired and missed out on a lot because of his stardom, he gave up so much for his fans. Now I am still up in the air as to if he still lives on this earth. Do I want it to be true? Absolutely! So many others do as well. Has he lived another life to serve God? How amazing would that be for him to have walked away from EVERYTHING he worked so hard for? He will always live on in our hearts no matter the circumstances.
No matter if you are still here on earth or singing with the angels and praising Jesus in heaven, we love you, Elvis!
On dear. What I "can't help believin'" is that so many of the reviewers here seem to have been taken in by this tosh. Loads of possibles and "what if's" strung together by rumour, innuendo and hearsay embroidered by a phone call, references to Elvis impersonators and an Arkansas preacher who are all supposed to be the real Elvis after he faked his own death but which, when followed up, obviously aren't him at all. Fanciful nonsense, safely avoided.
This is a well written book, with a lot of interesting points brought out to make you think: Did Elvis really die.
The book starts out telling you about the day Elvis was found, then it tells about his life and talks about the stories going around about him being dead and the ones that believe he is alive.
The author has gathered a lot of information, included pictures and public documents of all the theories that are out and put it in one place, making you doubt if he really did die or is hiding.
This is a very interesting book that makes you think.
I have to admit that until I read this book,I had not seriously entertained the idea Elvis is still living. But, reading this book gives me facts and very clear reasons to consider it could really be true. Something to think about and wonder how could it be kept secret almost 50 years if indeed this theory is true. I just know I am a true Elvis Presley fan love him either way and his family. I hope to be able to read the report in 2027 when released. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book ,it is a page turner with lots of facts and family revelations.
I’ve just finished reading this book. It’s only 69 pages long but it is mind blowing. He presents an argument that Elvis is still alive. It includes actual verifiable facts that you can look into yourself. He doesn’t say categorically he is alive, he says here are the facts, make your own mind up. For anyone who has even an inkling that Elvis didn’t die……read this. It’s certainly given me food for thought
This will have you believing Elvis is alive. Back when Elvis died some of us did not believe it. But all we read and saw you had to believe he was dead. After reading this book you might have a different opinion. Enjoy
I have always believed that Elvis did fake his own death & have been called crazy constantly by it but I will always strongly believe it to be true, so this was a very interesting read
Very interesting read and really makes you consider what could this really be what happened. It would be amazing to know the truth. If this is really what happened, I hope he is happy .
This book was well written the author was not hard pressed on making you believe that it's no other way then his. I am interested in learning all I can because it interests.
I always laugh at this question, people just can't believe this man, albeit a great entertainer died. This book however had me thinking really!! I would love if the pastor was Elvis though. Short book and an easy read.
This is a very well written piece. Extremely informative and very well written. I would definitely recommend it to anyone interested in learning more about Elvis Presley.
I found the book very intriguing and full of coincidences. Not sure what I believe, but it would be a very nice thought to think Elvis is alive and happy.
