When eleven climbers died on K2 in 2008, two Sherpas survived. Their
astonishing tale became the stuff of mountaineering legend. This
white-knuckle adventure follows the Sherpas from their remote villages
in Nepal to the peak of the world's most dangerous mountain, recounting
one of the most dramatic disasters in alpine history from a fascinating
new perspective.
