The White Road
Autor Sarah Lotzen Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 aug 2019
Desperate to attract subscribers to his fledgling website, 'Journey to the Dark Side', ex-adrenalin junkie and slacker Simon Newman hires someone to guide him through the notorious Cwm Pot caves, so that he can film the journey and put it on the internet. With a tragic history, Cwm Pot has been off-limits for decades, and unfortunately for Simon, the guide he's hired is as unpredictable and dangerous as the watery caverns that lurk beneath the earth. After a brutal struggle for survival, Simon barely escapes with his life, but predictably, the gruesome footage he managed to collect down in the earth's bowels goes viral.
Ignoring
the
warning
signs
of
mental
trauma,
and
eager
to
capitalize
on
his
new
internet
fame,
Simon
latches
onto
another
escapade
that
has
that
magic
click-bait
mix
of
danger
and
death--a
trip
to
Everest.
But
up
above
8000
feet,
in
the
infamous
Death
Zone,
he'll
need
more
than
his
dubious
morals
and
wits
to
guide
him,
especially
when
he
uncovers
the
truth
behind
a
decade-old
tragedy--a
truth
that
means
he
might
not
be
coming
back
alive.
A
truth
that
will
change
him--and
anyone
who
views
the
footage
he
captures--forever.
