Joe Simpson y su compañero de escalada, Simon Yates, habían alcanzado la cima de un pico de 21,000 pies en los Andes cuando ocurrió el desastre. Simpson cayó de un borde de hielo, rompiéndose la pierna. En las horas siguientes, la oscuridad se apoderó del lugar y una tormenta azotó la montaña mientras Yates intentaba bajar a su amigo a un lugar seguro. Finalmente, Yates se vio obligado a cortar la cuerda, momentos antes de ser arrastrado a su propia muerte. Los siguientes tres días fueron una prueba desgarradora para ambos. Yates, convencido de que Simpson estaba muerto, regresó al campamento base consumido por el dolor y la culpa por haberlo abandonado. Milagrosamente, Simpson había sobrevivido a la caída, pero atrapado en una profunda grieta, estaba gravemente herido, hambriento y con congelación. Reuniendo vastas reservas de fuerza física y espiritual, Simpson avanzó por los acantilados y cañones de los Andes, llegando al campamento base horas antes de lo que Yates había planeado. La forma en que ambos hombres superaron los tormentos de esos días angustiosos es una épica historia de miedo, sufrimiento y supervivencia, y un conmovedor testimonio de coraje y amistad inquebrantables.

Claire Masterson was the girl at school that Maggie Owen always wanted to be. Confident, good-looking, she was the first to know the facts of life, the first to Sun-In her hair, the first, easily the first, to go all the way. And when Maggie bumps into her twenty years later, it is as if nothing has changed: Claire's life is one of career moves to New York and great sex with married men; Maggie's is one of bringing up her children and never seeing her partner Jake, whose ever-demanding job has become his 'other woman'. Or has it? Jake is consistently working late, working weekends, taking working trips abroad . . . Maggie is suspicious, and when Claire talks a little too knowledgeably about Jake, she starts thinking the unthinkable. Her friends think she should confront them, but Maggie's got a better idea: she's going to have her cake and eat it.
