Reviews & rating

In this book, two expeditions are narrated: the tragic story of Nils Antezana, a mountaineer who died on the slopes of Everest after being abandoned by his guide; and the author's own expedition led by George Dijmarescu and his wife.

This guide, initially charming and attentive, turns out to be a violent and criminal tyrant toward his wife, as well as toward the author and the other members of the expedition. This violence would even pursue them back to their hometown in the USA…

Fights, theft, drugs, prostitution, intimidation, threats and the dangers of high-altitude mountaineering: journalist Michael Kodas takes you on a journey from which no one will return unscathed.
