A wonderful example of Alien/ Human intervention
After reading this book I am pretty sure that the mystery military (?) personnel that were frequently seen on and around the Andrew's property knew about the abductions of Jason and his mother. At one point in the book, Mrs Andrews finds herself outside in her night wear watching these human figures clad in all in one suits with head masks on going over her land and heard one of them say ( something to the effect of ) " Well you wanted her here." The next thing she remembers is waking up in her bed and seeing her feet covered in soil.
The alien abductors also seem to have given Jason the ability of remote viewing ( or astral travel) as he describes going into some kind of base, walking through ( literally) a wall and into a corridor where a ( human) guard stood outside an unmarked door. The armed man wore a uniform without any insignia or even a name badge. He did not seem to be able to see Jason. Jason walked through the door as if it was not even there, and in the room were containers in which were parts and even whole bodies of what Jason knew to be his alien abduct
ors. This sort of theme occurs throughout the book and makes it un-put-downable.
This was a thought provoking read to be read with an open mind. But of course, you wouldn't be reading it if you didn't already have an open mind.................
A heart touching account which will open your mind
I found this book very interesting, having now read it several times. A sad yet warm account of a family who have had to come to terms with a string of strange events, and where the logical conclusion is that of alien contact, which the family did not want. This book opened my mind to the fact that the alien abduction phenomenon was not solely an American issue, as this book deals with an English family. A bit to detailed in terms of family history at times, but overall a very good and informative read. The family are clearly very brave in coming forward, and I thank them for their courage.
A sad story of a family in crisis
This book details the traumas suffered by the Andrews family over more than a decade, focusing principally around their younger son, Jason. His disruptive behaviour was treated unsuccessfully by school psychiatrists and an apparent breakthorough came when the family watched a television programme about alien abduction. Jason was instantly identified as an abductee (by his older brother) and eventually put in touch with veteran abduction investigator, Tony Dodd.
For someone with an open mind about aliens, the whole tone of the book comes across as the work of "true believers". Anything the family perceives as strange is put down to alien intervention. The sound of a mobile phone ringing in the woods surrounding their farm is put down to being watched (why these covert agents of an unnamed Secret Organisation don't switch their phones to silent mode is never explained), acts of vandalism on the isolated farm are the result of surveillance or alien intervention and so on. There is little to no attempt to find out what was causing these events. When "men from the Minsitry" took away the carcases of cattle that had died from a severe outbreak of salmonellosis, nobody saw fit to ask them who they were, which department they represented or to follow up the visit by telephoning around various departments.
I ended up feeling very sorry for Jason. He appears to have been manipulated into believing that a series of terrible nightmares were objective reality. Today, he runs a New Age healing type of business and is convinced that he is an "indigo child" - effectively an alien half breed. This is ultimately the tale of a young man with problems that were resolved by externalising the causes - "there's nothing wrong with you, son, so it must have been the aliens wot dun it" seems to be the rationale behind the 'diagnosis' of abduction.
Poor Jason!
