Author's Note

This story began the way the best ones do: uninvited. 

I kept dreaming of people swinging between towers—acrobats of survival—moving through a city that had forgotten them. They lived between worlds, where altitude defined privilege and attitude defined worth. Above the clouds, elegance without empathy. Below, labor without recognition. And yet, in the thin air between, something brave still climbed: the idea that connection, not height, makes us human.

I didn't know what it meant or what it would become. I only knew it wouldn't leave me alone. So I followed it.

That single image grew roots. It became a divided city where the powerful lived above the clouds and the forgotten lived below. It became two young lives colliding across that divide—a shared myth buried in fog, and a climb, literal and otherwise, back toward unity.

Years later, that dream became a finished book. I hope y'all enjoy it! — Patrick LaJuett
