Title: Buried Alive: The True Story of Kidnapping, Captivity, and a Dramatic Rescue (NelsonFree) Author: Roy Hallums Narrator: Milton Bagby Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 55 minutes Release date: April 18, 2023 Genres: Ancient Civilizations Publisher's Summary: A true-life adventure sure to shock as well as inspire. AK47s, masked thugs, and brutal urgency erupt from Roy Hallums' account of his abduction in Iraq, shredding through those frequently sterile cable news reports revealing that another 'American contractor is being held hostage . . .' Hallums was the everyman behind that report?a 56-year-old retired Naval commander working as a food supply contractor in Baghdad's high-end Mansour District. His abduction was transacted in a matter of minutes, amidst a hail of gunfire and a handful of casualties. For the first few months of his captivity, Hallums endured beatings and psychological torture while being shuffled from one ramshackle safe house to another. From the four-foot-tall crawlspace where he carried out the bulk of his nearly year-long abduction, Hallums established a surprising degree of normalcy?a system of routines and timekeeping, along with an attention to the particulars that defined his horrific ordeal. His experience is recreated here, rich with harrowing specifics and surprising observations. Photos are included in the audiobook companion PDF download.
