 SUMMARY

This is the novelization of the 2008 X-Files movie I Want to Believe.

 STORY

The X-Files: I Want to Believe is a novelization of the 2008 film, written by Max Allan Collins. It takes place years after the events of the television series and follows former FBI agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully, who have left the Bureau and are living separate lives.

The story begins when the FBI reaches out to Mulder for help in a new case involving the disappearance of several women. Mulder is reluctant at first, but Scully convinces him to join the investigation. The case is strange and involves a psychic former priest, Father Joseph Crissman, who claims to have visions of the missing women. Mulder, ever the believer in paranormal phenomena, is intrigued by Crissman’s visions, while Scully remains skeptical.

As the investigation progresses, Mulder and Scully uncover a series of gruesome medical experiments tied to the disappearances. The plot delves into themes of faith, redemption, and the tension between science and belief, central to the dynamic between Mulder and Scully.

Scully, now a doctor, is deeply involved in the care of a young patient with a terminal illness, which puts her at odds with Mulder's desire to pursue the supernatural elements of the case. This personal conflict adds emotional depth to the story, as Scully struggles with her faith in both her medical abilities and her belief system.

Ultimately, Mulder and Scully’s investigation leads them to a remote location where they confront the criminals behind the experiments and save the remaining victims. The novel concludes with Mulder and Scully reaffirming their bond, both as partners and as individuals trying to find peace in a world full of uncertainty.
