Weekly SpyNet roundup of strange phenomena, unexplained events and real crime. Sourced, and updated every Saturday.

Welcome to STRANGE MATTERS, SpyNet's weekly look at the odd, the unexplained and the criminal. SpyNet is the private intelligence agency in the SPYNET novels by Danny Siggers, published by Inquizit. On this page we turn that same curiosity on the real world: bizarre and unexplained phenomena on Earth and in space, unsolved crimes, and major crime stories that deserve a careful eye.
Every Saturday we publish an intelligence report, sourced roundup. We do not invent facts, and we do not dress up a rumour as a finding. Each item is linked to a public source and labelled so you can see what is confirmed, what is still open, and what is only a claim. Some of these stories may one day echo in the fiction. Until then, they are reported straight, fact, real and true.

How we report
- We use public sources only.
- Every item is linked to its source, so you can read the original for yourself.
- Each item is labelled ‘Verified’, ‘Unresolved’ or ‘Claim only’.
- Allegations are not convictions. A formal investigation, an arrest or a charge is not a finding of guilt.
- We do not speculate about suspects, and we do not name anyone unless the police or the courts have already done so in public.
- If we get something wrong, we correct it openly on this page.
- Where we add a "SpyNet angle", it is fiction, written in the voice of the novels. It is not evidence and it is not part of the factual report.
- If you have information about a crime, contact the police (101, or 999 in an emergency) or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111. Do not contact SpyNet.

We cannot take reports, pass on tip-offs or investigate on your behalf.
