Four travelers meet in Bolivia and set off into the heart of the Amazon rainforest, but what begins as a dream adventure quickly deteriorates into a dangerous nightmare, and after weeks of wandering in the dense undergrowth, the four backpackers split up into two groups. But when a terrible rafting accident separates him from his partner, Yossi is forced to survive for weeks alone against one of the wildest backdrops on the planet.

The story is harrowing

The story is heroic. I could not have survived how Yassi did. Also, I don’t have the love of a friend yassi has. The narrator was dry. He did get better as the story went on, but it was a fight to continue listening even though the story of what happened to this person was intriguing.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 69
On the morning of July 18, 2014, 41-year-old Florida State law professor Dan Markel dropped his boys off at preschool, hit the gym, and headed home to his quiet, tree-canopied neighborhood. Within seconds of pulling into his garage, two .38-caliber bullets fired from point-blank range were lodged in his brain. His brutal slaying defied explanation.

Loved it!

For whatever reason, since I heard the podcast of this case, I can’t get enough of it. This book was great for me because, while I knew a lot of the facts, there was a lot in here I didn’t know. I actually loved the extraordinary background information on all of the “players”. Additionally, Professor Markel deserves to have his story told and not be forgotten in the trials of his killers. I think the book did that.
