How many will make it down alive? ________________ 'A gripping hour-by-hour dissection of events in the Western Himalayas over three deadly days. A fitting shelfmate to the modern classic Into Thin Air. A cracking read' Sunday Times 'The best mountain-disaster memoir since Into Thin Air' Mail on Sunday 'Stories of heroism, sadness and extraordinary endurance against all the odds [are] woven into a thrilling drama' Daily Mail 16pp colour inset
