About this audiobook
A fisherman recounts six hours of terror trapped inside a funnel of water that stretches from the ocean floor to the sky. By observing the physics of the debris swirling around him, he finds a desperate path to salvation while his brother succumbs to madness. This tale masters the sensation of vertigo and the sublime horror of nature's indifference.
