I don't plan to use my real name to publish (duh)
IMHO you're likely going to have a hard time gaining ANY credibility if people can't put a face to a name.
If you want to go the anonymous route, it would be better to team up with a reputable reporter and break the story/book through them. This way you can borrow the reporter's credibility by being their reputable anonymous source, do anonymous interviews, etc...
Otherwise the industry is going to go "we don't spend any time reading fake slander stories from ghosts, we're too busy helping people" (or whatever).
Whether or not you should write this, however, comes purely down to how strongly you feel about the need for this story to be told. A lot of people have become famous for disregarding their personal safety to get the word out there about this or that. To them - it wasn't a choice. It was their calling or mission or duty. If you could take or leave this story one way or the other, and you are risking your life over it - that sounds like you don't have the conviction to tell this story. Just being honest.
