David, I saw the TV movie of this story with James Earl Jones and Estelle Parsons back in the 70s. Part of the attraction was Jones' acting, but it was a memorable freaky story. Especially the very end. (The part about the star map). Unfortunately, while terrific television (For the time) there are just too many other issues in the way to make the story believable. Still, like you, I think it is the best abduction story I have encountered. Wait, what is that little head poking around the corner? .... Nooooo!!!!! (That was my brief homage to Communion)
