Somebody Else's War:
The Diana Fowley & Jeffrey Spender Collection


Special Agents Diana Fowley and Jeffrey Spender were latecomers into somebody else's war. But each had their own role to play. Whether with others, together, or flying solo, each had their own special perspective on the human face of the mythology. Jeffrey's past with Cassandra and Samantha, Diana's bond with Mulder, and their conspiratorial once-removed connections with Krycek, Marita, and Mulder make them a fascinating, if neglected point of view on the series.
