A mystery bound for Everest

Abbie Bradford’s invitation to accompany novelist Emma Caulfield to Everest Base Camp turns a research trip into an investigation whose stakes reach beyond the mountain. The route runs from Kathmandu through Lukla and along the old Silk Road, placing the mystery in a journey shaped by climbing culture and international intrigue. Abbie’s family history of consuming obsessions gives the story a personal thread, while the description signals espionage, an avalanche, and murders as the central dangers. The unresolved question is what Emma is seeking at the world’s highest mountain—and what Abbie will risk to uncover it.

Book overview

Abbie Bradford grew up with obsessions-her grandfather's quest to locate American servicemen in Cambodia, her father's relentless hobby scanning galaxies, her mother's mental illness-and so she is unsurprised by the obsessive nature of the climbers who want to scale Mount Everest.

 

She only learns about that obsession when novelist Emma Caulfield visits Abbie's home in Boston and asks Abbie to join her on a trek up to Base Camp. Abbie agrees... but quickly begins to wonder what the famous and secretive novelist really has up her sleeve.

 

From the bustle of Kathmandu's Durbar Square to the hair-raising flight into Lukla and across the old Silk Road, Abbie plays companion and researcher. But when Emma finally reveals the truth of what's leading her to the highest mountain on Earth, Abbie has to make a decision. If she stays, she'll be swept up into international intrigue, risking lives-including her own-to solve a mystery a century in the making. And she'll need to navigate Russian spies, a Base Camp avalanche, murders, and more before she learns the truth of what is really coming down the mountain.

 

Perfect for fans of international mystery and crime, The Everest Enigma delivers a breathless ride through an exotic locale-a smart, intense read.
