Surprise, Surprise!

On November 15, 1998 the book "What is Scientology?"(WIS) was the No. 1 Besteller in the L.A. Times. For the price of $24.95 the "guide to L.Ron Hubbard's religious philosophy" is twice as expensive than the other paperbacks in the list. One week later (November 21, 1998) the book WIS 'mysteriously' disappeared from the bestseller list. Also on the following weeks Nov. 29 and Dec. 6, 1998.
And than - surprise, surprise - the book is back on the bestseller list, this time in the No. 2 spot (Dec. 13, 1998) only to disappear again in the following week.
Well, have you ever seen a performance of a book in a besteller list like this one (with the exception of Scientology books)?
