Overview of Summit Book
The view from 8,848 meters is not always clear..In the autumn of 1938, Germany s reichsfuhrer, Heinrich Himmler, is growing frustrated at the British using their regional power in India to block the passage of an SS expedition to Tibet. Determined to spite them, he plots to steal something the British hold dear and have failed for the seventh time that spring to achieve a first summit of Mount Everest.Seventy years later, seasoned mountain guide Neil Quinn s ninth visit to the top of the world s highest mountain, this time in charge of the sixteen-year-old son of a Long Island billionaire, begins to unravel. As a desperate fight for their lives begins in the freezing air high above Tibet, Quinn stumbles across a clue to a story that challenges everything he thinks he knows about the great mountain.When the bitter aftermath of Quinn s disastrous climb turns to violent tragedy in Kathmandu, his discovery pushes him into a relentless journey that takes him from the dangerous heights of Everest to the equally treacherous margins of a new Europe, where history hungers to repeat itself.Amid a rich and diverse cast of characters, each with their own reason to possess the mystery of his discovery, Neil Quinn has to fight, increasingly desperately, for order and the truth. A complex, deftly crafted, consistently compelling suspense thriller of a read from beginning to end. Midwest Book Review A gripper. Takes you up to the majesty of Mt Everest and into the single-minded madness of climbers..what a plot. Fantastic. Sir Robert Swan, bestselling author of Antarctica 2041 and first person to walk to the South and North Poles.
