520 "A thrilling tale of high-altitude death and survival set
on the snowy summits of Mount Everest, from the
bestselling author of The Terror. It's 1924 and the race
to summit the world's highest mountain has been brought to
a terrified pause by the shocking disappearance of George
Mallory and Sandy Irvine high on the shoulder of Mt.
Everest. By the following year, three climbers -- a
British poet and veteran of the Great War, a young French
Chamonix guide, and an idealistic young American -- find a
way to take their shot at the top. They arrange funding
from the grieving Lady Bromley, whose son also disappeared
on Mt. Everest in 1924. Young Bromley must be dead, but
his mother refuses to believe it and pays the trio to
bring him home. Deep in Tibet and high on Everest, the
three climbers -- joined by the missing boy's female
cousin -- find themselves being pursued through the night
by someone. or something. This nightmare becomes a matter
of life and death at 28,000 feet - but what is pursuing
them? And what is the truth behind the 1924 disappearances
on Everest? As they fight their way to the top of the
world, the friends uncover a secret far more abominable
than any mythical creature could ever be. A pulse-pounding
story of adventure and suspense, The Abominable is Dan
Simmons at his spine-chilling best"--|cProvided by
