This is a very compelling account of what became known as “alien abduction” about 70 years ago. For whatever strange reason, I find the potential reality of the basis on this story to be comforting. Probably because any reminder of a bigger picture of our cosmos brings me great solace.
One small critique of the narration: in an attempt to capture Betty and Barney Hill’s New England accent, this otherwise solid and reliable narrator missed the mark. He has such pleasing mid-Atlantic speech but couldn’t quite get the roughness of the dialect, and anytime there was dialogue that included the name “Barney,” I kept thinking he was saying “Bonnie.” But this is a minor complaint.
Whether you find it credible or not, I think it’s a pretty fascinating (and at times riveting) narrative. I’m glad I read it.
