Blink-182’s Tom DeLonge has written another novel. And you’ll never guess what it’s about.

Okay, you will. It’s about aliens. Duh.

Tom DeLonge, together wtih his regular collaborator, AJ Hartney, has a new novel entitled Trinity coming on June 11 via both Tom’s To the Stars Media and Simon & Schuster. This adds to his already-impressive library of novels and on-fiction works involving “sekret machines.”

This new book concentrates around a UFO incident from the early 60s somewhere in the vicinity of a nuclear test site. Here’s the full synopsis:

:“It’s 1962, in Trinity, Nevada, a small town on the edge of the desert, home to a military base serving the nuclear testing grounds. Van Lopez and his brother Andy have enough to do keeping their truck running and the local criminal gang happy to be concerned about nuclear tests. Van has dreams, or—he’s not sure what to call them—that he cannot explain or forget, but when he sees mysterious lights in the sky, he struggles to make sense of what now feel like his earliest memories.

“On the day of the atomic test, the nuclear blast brings down something over Trinity that wasn’t supposed to be there – something not of this world. Now Van is running for his life, pursued by a murderous Soviet agent and government forces bent on keeping all he has seen – and all he has remembered—from getting out. Romances and rivalries come to a head as he fights for the things he cares about most, and in that final battle he may have to make allies of his oldest enemies.”

Tom believes all this really happened, of course.
