This is the second book in the Caroline series, beginning where "Halfway to Heaven Caroline’s Story" ended. Caroline has a chance encounter with a man who appears to be her saving grace and agrees to take a chance. However, taking this chance began a journey, leading her to the same kind of people she already knew, but they were in a new disguise. They were self-righteous and smug in their certainty and intolerant moralities. The submissive, hopeless dreamer in Caroline was easily manipulated while they rode their red carpets of authority.

"This is the tale of Mark Horrell’s not-so-nearly ascent of Gasherbrum in Pakistan, of how one man’s boredom and frustration was conquered by a gutsy combination of exhaustion, cowardice, and sheer mountaineering incompetence.

Eine Fotografin, 45, kein Partner, keine Kinder, keine Eltern mehr, geht auf eine Expeditionskreuzfahrt von Grönland nach Alaska. Sie ist froh, dass ihr Beruf es ihr erlaubt, "dauernd nach vorn zu sehen". Doch natürlich melden sich die nicht zu Ende gedachten Gedanken und offenen Fragen, irgendwo zwischen der Enge an Bord unter nicht ausnahmslos angenehmen Mitreisenden (wie Schriftsteller, die Buchclub-Schreibkurse geben, oder Influencer mit fragwürdigen Tischmanieren) und den kühlen Weiten der Arktis.
