Radio talk show host by day and passionate artist by night, Virgil Daly is on a desperate quest for true fulfillment. Constantly torn between the disparate extremes of pleasure and pain, Virgil’s daily torment is only further compounded when he learns that someone is determined to kill him. Ultimately, with his very life at stake, Virgil is forced to confront his innermost demons – eventually coming to the realization that the concepts of “escape” and “freedom” are not one and the same...

Deeply insightful, Precipice is a hauntingly compelling read. In it, author Christina Westover paints an engrossing portrait of a conflicted soul in constant flux, chronicling Virgil’s often fruitless efforts to discover true meaning in his life. Though his particular situation may be unique, the symbolic struggle of Westover’s troubled protagonist is by no means an isolated example of the daily challenges with which we all contend. As such, readers from all backgrounds are sure to relate both to the weariness of Virgil’s tired soul, as well as to his stubborn refusal to be victimized by the daunting tests and trials that come his way. Strongly recommended.
