A Nail-Biting Tale of Survival

This fast-paced, three-part narrative takes readers on three expeditions over 15 years to K2, one of the deadliest mountains on Earth. Roped together, these teams of men face perilously high altitudes and battering storms in hopes of reaching the summit. They carve new paths along icy slopes and unforgiving rock, creating camps on ledges so narrow they fear turning over in their sleep. Filled with displays of incredible strength and heart-stopping danger.
