About this product
Product Information
A BOOK OF THE MONTH CLUB PICK * A high-altitude thriller that will take your breath away--Cecily Wong is on her most dangerous climb yet, miles above sea level. But the elements are nothing compared to one chilling truth: There's a killer on the mountain. "A vertigo-inducing page-turner by an author who brings the high-stakes world of expert mountain-climbing to life on the page." --Nita Prose, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Maid Journalist Cecily Wong is in over her head. She's come to Manaslu, the eighth-highest peak in the world, to interview internationally famous mountaineer Charles McVeigh on the last leg of a record-breaking series of summits. She's given up everything for this story--her boyfriend, her life savings, the peace she's made with her climbing failures in the past--but it's a career-making opportunity. It could finally put her life back on track. But when one climber dies in what everyone else assumes is a freak accident, she fears their expedition is in danger. And by the time a second climber dies, it's too late to turn back. Stranded on a mountain in one of the most remote regions of the world, she'll have to battle more than the elements in a harrowing fight for survival against a killer who is picking them off one by one.

NATIONAL OUTDOOR BOOK AWARD WINNER "The fact that McCulloch has actually climbed Manaslu allows her to ground her zippy thriller in first-hand experience. McCulloch knows what it's like to be on a commercially guided ascent of an 8,000-meter peak. She knows what it's like to be a relative novice in that context--surrounded by guides and Sherpas and other climbers who've got far more experience in the mountains. She knows what it's like to be plopped down in a community of ambitious and sometimes disagreeable strangers in a setting that requires mutual trust. And she knows what it's like to feel, as one of the few women on the mountain, like you're 'a target' for misogyny and unwanted sexual advances. And so, in between the deaths and cliffhangers through which the plot hurtles, McCulloch puts her firsthand knowledge on display--in the process winning our trust as readers and shedding an uncomfortable amount of light on some of mountaineering's less admirable aspects." -- Climbing.com "A vertigo-inducing page-turner by an author who brings the high-stakes world of expert mountain-climbing to life on the page." --Nita Prose, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Maid "If you're looking for a book to thrill and transport you, then Breathless is the read for you! Set high in the chilling Death Zone, this thriller had me on the edge of my seat. I loved being immersed in the competitive, high-stakes world of alpine climbing, and Amy brilliantly evokes how risky this setting is, a setting that can only get deadlier with a murderer on the mountain . . . A must-read for 2022" --Sarah Pearse, New York Times bestselling author of The Sanatorium " Breathless is a high-altitude, high-stakes thriller that combines fascinating, authentic mountaineering experience with pure thriller entertainment. The suspense rises like the Nepalese mountain it is set on. Reminded me of the best of Michael Crichton, where in-depth knowledge and a masterful plot work together to create a tense adrenaline-fuelled ride. I loved it.' --Matt Haig, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Midnight Library "This thriller would be unsettling enough at sea level, but in the death zone, it's suffocatingly tense. McCulloch combines extreme mountaineering with murder to create a novel that's chilling, vivid, and entirely unique." -- Abigail Dean, New York Times bestselling author of Girl A "Nail-biting, chilling, totally exhilarating--a true triumph." -- Stacey Halls, bestselling author of T he Familiars "Tense, chilling and terrifying with unforgettable characters and an unpredictable and atmospheric plot. One of the most original thrillers I've read. It deserves to be huge! -- Claire Douglas, bestselling author of Last Seen Alive "An intense and sinister thriller, Breathless takes readers on a treacherous climb to one of the highest peaks in the world. Amy McCulloch's chilling setting is remarkably evocative, and I was transfixed by her brave heroine grappling to reach the life-threatening summit, with a possible murderer on her trail. Mesmerizing and haunting, this enthralling suspense will make you shiver with dread and tear through the pages to the pulse-pounding end." --Samantha M. Bailey, USA Today and #1 national bestselling author of Woman on the Edge "I climbed Manaslu with Amy - she is the real deal." --Nirmal "Nimsdai" Purja, author of Beyond Possible and star of the Netflix documentary 14 Peaks, "The fact that McCulloch has actually climbed Manaslu allows her to ground her zippy thriller in first-hand experience.
