Jozef Karika –

The captivating ambiance of Foxford Café housed within Martinus bookstore in Poprad provided the backdrop for the unveiling of the latest book “Priepasť” by a Slovak writer – Jozef Karika.

Here’s a glimpse from Goodreads about the book:

A former climber suffering from a crippling fear of heights stumbles upon the legend of a rocky ledge in the Tatras, where an unknown force compels those who wander there to leap into the abyss and meet their demise. The unusual number of fatal accidents in this area keeps him up at night. He embarks on a solo investigation, but the truths he uncovers defy human imagination and comprehension. His curiosity exacts a cruel price — he finds himself teetering on the edge of the precipice.

Is the old legend among mountain guides about a supernatural force pushing people into the depths just a chilling rumor, or does it contain a grain of truth?
