Thriller
In this gripping novel, the world is watching as 12 hardened
racers gather to compete in an event promoted as the most
ambitious adventure race ever attempted. The contestants
will advance into the deepest unexplored gorge on earth, and
the first climber to ascend to the top of 22,000-foot Kuk
Sur, one of the last remaining unclimbed Himalayan peaks,
will claim a two million dollar prize. Among the climbers
are Conner Michaels, haunted by his brother's mysterious
death on Kuk Sur six years earlier; Preston Child, the
millionaire financier of the race; and Child’s beautiful
daughter, Malika. Hotshot television producer Terrance
Carlton is overseeing the filming of the event, and each
racer is outfitted with a shoulder-mounted camera for live
broadcasts around the world. But as the racers plunge deeper
into the legendary gorge, death follows. As the carnage
mounts in the treacherously remote mountains, the racers—and
the millions watching the tragedy unfold on
television—realize that the mist-shrouded gorge is not as
uninhabited as everyone had believed.
