The true story of the Brooklyn Bridge UFO abductions is featured in this book by celebrated author Budd Hopkins. With nearly two dozen witnesses to date, this is the spectacular abduction of a wife and mother floated through a plate glass window and metal grid from her twelfth floor apartment to a hovering UFO. Hopkins delivers the story one breathless moment at a time as he lets readers re-live his personal hunt and chase drama for witnesses to this startling Alien abduction which occurred on November 30, 1989 in Manhattan, New York, USA.

Through solicited and unsolicited inquiries, Hopkins recreates the bizarre abduction of a 41 year old wife and mother from her apartment. Awakened shortly after 3:15 a.m., Linda Cortile (pseudonym) recalls a creature with large eyes near her bed which then assists her in floating out the living room window, into a beam of light and up into a UFO. Witnesses on the ground report the UFO then plunged underwater where it remained and was not seen again. A world leader and high level security attendants were part of the entourage witnessing this spectacular sequence of events. Witnesses reported car lights and radios turning off spontaneously as engines stalled. Occupants of cars on the bridge asked each other what was going on and later reports indicated witnesses were remembering different parts of the event.

Intrigue continues as two friends and security agents who witnessed the event fall in love with Linda. Dan, a deeply troubled man wants to possess Linda to the point of insanity. Richard, a quieter man twice divorced, recalls having known Linda since they were both small children and wants to be with her again.

Their mutual discovery through hypnosis that Richard and Linda were brought together repeatedly as young children by the Aliens torments Richard. His discovery that Linda is real, and not a fantasy from childhood dreams, tortures him as he yearns to love this woman physically who is happily married to someone else and the mother of two boys.
