"There are only two kinds of rope: the kind that holds, and the kind that teaches you what falling means."
A gripping, suffocatingly intense dark romance about the thin line between rescue and captivity.
THE CATCH I'm Aura Finch, a landscape photographer who goes to the most dangerous places on earth to capture beauty. I knew the risks. But during a high-angle shoot on California's wild Lost Coast, my rigging failed. I fell. Two hundred feet of sheer drop, and then-nothingness. Except, I didn't hit the water. Out of the air, a pair of scarred, powerful hands caught my harness and pulled me onto a narrow granite ledge.
THE KEEPER Theron Voss is a structural bridge engineer living in self-imposed exile on a cliff wall. He checked his ropes, measured his water, and monitored the weather with cold, clinical precision. He saved my life, and then he clipped me to a safety rope, tethering me to his wall. A radius of one meter. That was my world. He told me the weather was too dangerous to climb back up. He told me we had to wait. He rationed my water, shared his blanket, and taught me how to tie knots in the sweltering heat.
THE TETHER But Theron is hiding a dark past, a tragedy on a bridge that broke his soul and left him obsessed with holding onto anything that falls. The barometer didn't lie, but Theron did. The weather window was open, and he held it shut with fabricated numbers. He overbuilt our rescue gear and manipulated the timeline just to keep me sleeping against his chest for one more night.
On a two-meter ledge where gravity is a constant threat, the most dangerous thing isn't the two-hundred-foot drop. It is the man who holds my rope. I wanted to scream, but the worst part was... I wasn't sure I wanted to leave.
