Description
Riva's life as a 'high-rise diver' is one of precision and perfection. But when she suddenly rebels against her contract, cameras capturing every move, Hitomi, a psychologist tasked with reining Riva back in, finds herself at the centre of a high-stakes game. Hitomi's own life hangs in the balance: failure to deliver will mean banishment to the 'peripheries', the outskirts of society. As she watches Riva's every step, she must confront her own loyalties and the true cost of her work. A gripping story of rebellion and control, The High-rise Diver is a thought-provoking exploration of the human condition.
