Résumé

I was trapped underwater holding my breath. I felt no pain and did not panic. Many years of freediving, shark encounters, wild currents, and rough seas had most likely prepared me for this moment of calm contemplation while my life was hanging in the balance. Lying there helpless, I knew that the guys were doing everything they could to find me, or if they knew where I was, to lift the boat and free me.
The seething, foamy aftermath of the huge wave had settled into an eerie quietness. The water was a beautiful pale turquoise, and large light-filled bubbles floated up before my eyes. These airy orbs gleamed in the morning sun, expanding and changing shape slowly on their way to the surface.??This memoir weaves an adventurous life story with the challenges of breaking barriers in the male-dominated world of spearfishing.
Beyond thrilling underwater hunts, it reveals resilience against physical dangers and societal biases, highlighted by a gripping near-death experience. The authors vivid storytelling balances action with deep reflection, identity, courage and perseverance. With an unapologetic voice and raw honesty, the book challenges gender norms in extreme sports and offers an inspiring testament to overcoming adversity.
a compelling read for anyone drawn to stories of bravery, passion and personal growth. A captivating narrative of an extraordinary life of travel and challenge fuelled by Jean's passion for spearfishing. Rob Allen and Jeremy Williams @ The Dive Factory, South Africa. One of my favourite books to date. a breath of fresh air. I could scarcely put it down from start to finish and hope there are more to come.
