For those who make it to the back cover of the slipcase there are numerous spoilers. “ONE BOOK,  TWO READERS, A WORLD OF MYSTERY, MENACE, AND DESIRE.” In fact, the book, the writer, V.M. Straka, and the two readers, Eric and Jen, are identified. The project identifies the collaborators, and calls the work: “Abram’s and Dorst’s love letter to the written word.”

The sealed tape that on the back cover reveals a drawing of a sailing vessel.  Above it are the words in white on a black background: WHAT BEGINS AT THE WATER SHALL END THERE.  Below it a red background with white letters reads : AND WHAT ENDS THERE SHALL ONCE MORE BEGIN. These words highlight a promotional video clip to attract readers.
