A series of unforeseen events leads to the author being trapped in a small, pitch-dark cavern surrounded by a volcanic rock wall with no way out. As the chest-high water laps at him, waves batter him against the volcanic rock, leaving him bloodied and gasping for breath. Above ground, his wife (and co-author) has seen her husband disappear underwater. After no sighting of him for ten minutes, she makes the difficult decision to leave the harsh surf and unsafe rocks to call 911 and hope for a recovery of his body.
After the recovery, the incident leads the authors on a search for meaning, striving to understand why this event happened, and pondering what to do about it.
