About the book
From the #1 New York Times bestselling duo, renowned archaeologist Nora Kelly and FBI Agent Corrie Swanson investigate a mystery so enigmatic it may have no solution.
In 2008, a group of nine mountaineers did not return from a winter backpacking trip in the mountains of New Mexico. The search team discovered a shocking sight at their last campsite: something so terrifying had appeared at the tent's entrance that they had to cut their way out and run barefoot into a blizzard, leading to their inevitable demise.
After a thorough search, only six bodies were recovered, two of which were brutally crushed and mysteriously missing their eyes. The FBI named the case 'Dead Mountain,' but it remained unsolved.
Fifteen years later, two more bodies from the ill-fated expedition were found in a cave, one appearing to be a gruesome suicide. Young FBI Agent Corrie Swanson joins forces with archaeologist Nora Kelly to delve into the truth behind the tragic journey and locate the missing ninth victim. However, their investigation triggers a dormant malevolence that relentlessly chases them, intent on keeping the final body hidden forever.
