Summary

Today, 60 years after the UFO abduction of Betty and Barney Hill, more and more people are convinced that UFOs are real and their existence is being covered up by the government. If you have doubts or questions about the Hill case or alien experiences in general, Captured! will give you the answers you're searching for.

The 1961 abduction of the Hills stirred worldwide interest and enthralled the public and media for decades. It also became a target for debunkers, who still attack it today. But the complete story of what really happened that day, its effect on the participants, and the findings of investigators has never been told - until now.

In Captured!, you'll get an insider's look at the alien abduction, previously unpublished information about the lives of the Hills before and after Barney's death in 1969, their status as celebrities, Betty's experiences as a UFO investigator, and other activities before her death in 2004. Kathleen Marden, Betty Hill's niece, shares details from her discussions with Betty and from the evidence of the UFO abduction. In addition, coauthor, physicist, and ufologist Stanton T. Friedman reviews and refutes the arguments of those who have attacked the Hill case, including the star map Betty Hill saw inside the craft and later recreated.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Betty’s extraordinary life

Probably the most comprehensive account of just just one abduction with a tale stretching over 30 years..
Very interesting , if a little repetitive at times , also cross referencing other well known Extra Terrestrial folklore records..
Highly entertaining as these books go , it’s a whimsical 13 hours or so to allow you to wonder and imagine what really might have happened to this very unique couple..
The audio reader is prone to tone changes throughout , maybe due to editing but it steady and emotionless in her delivery of chapter by chapter rendition..
Left me with many questions that seemed strangely unmentioned .. the main one being the interracial differences between Betty and Barney the visitors seemed to ignore… being confused about false teeth between the two , but not the stark difference in Human skin colour..
maybe it’s not important , but given the times and attitudes then , any curious beings might be so bold as to enquire..
And if Betty had such powers to invite them to “knock” on a family’s door and any given date for a chance meeting and “catch up” , wouldn’t the US government or investors set up cameras and offices to document this ??
It’s a fascinating listen , and it’s really down to how much really happened , and how much has been misinterpreted from retold events as the years have passed..

not for me

This is the kind of thing I listen to all the time but I really didn't enjoy this. the story's have been rehashed several times and padded out every time they're told. The way it's read sometimes makes no sense and seems like there are errors in the editing, so certain things get repeated in the same sentence.
