Thriller-writer Jeff Long once again mines his experiences as a mountain-climber for this literal cliffhanger. Hugh Glass and Lewis Cole attempt to recapture the golden days of 35 years ago, when, accompanied by their future wives, they ascended the intimidating rock face of Yosemite`s El Capitan. But just as their marriages were doomed (Hugh`s mentally unbalanced wife disappeared into the desert and Lewis faces an imminent divorce), so too is this climb, which begins with Hugh`s witnessing a woman`s body plummeting past him to the ground.
