About the book
Up Above the World by Paul Bowles is a psychological thriller about an American doctor and his young wife who take a vacation in Central America and accidentally witness the aftermath of a suspicious death. To keep them quiet, a charming but dangerous man invites the couple to his remote mountain home and secretly drugs them to erase their memories and warp their sense of reality. Through their terrifying ordeal, the story uses simple suspense to show how easily naive travelers can lose control when trapped far from home in a world they do not understand.
