Sample Book Insights:
#1 The first silence was not the silence of death, but death had come much too close and was still hovering right there. I called out to my other cousins and to my friend Marcelo. Everyone answered me except my cousin Daniel Shaw, and that small silence in itself gave me a response that I wasn’t ready to process.
#2 The air was extremely thin in the plane, and it was hard to breathe. I began to notice that something was wrong with my right leg, but I didn't bother to examine it. I struggled to walk and my steps were erratic. I wandered around a bit dazed.
#3 The plane had been severed into two pieces, and the rear part had slid hundreds of yards downhill on the slope. The remains of the fuselage had ended up on the eastern slope of an enormous snow-covered mountain, and two other peaks surrounded us to the north and the south.
#4 I was extremely fortunate to have survived the crash. The next day, however, rescue still did not come, and we began to fear that it would never come. I remembered God, and hoped he would save us.
