We maken hier kennis met Cecily die, om haar carrière te redden, een interview wil versieren met Charles McVeigh. Soon you’ll learn what we already know, that while danger lurks up there, so too dues unimaginable beauty.I just wish this had a bit more meat on the bones and a more satisfying payoff for the excellent build up.

Watch the Story Behind Breathless… - Amy McCulloch
It was my BOTM choice for May, and I should have read a few more of my GR friends' reviews before choosing it. The native, highly experienced Sherpa guides proceed ahead to lay down ladders and ropes, providing assistance and safety for the climbers.a murderer has followed them to the mountain, and the extreme environment provides the perfect cover for a killer to lurk, concealed, preying on climbers whose survival is already shaky. She constantly questions her own abilities, which is further reinforced by her privileged male team members who see her as a weak link. There is a very obvious red herring in the mix and only ever two serious contenders for the killer but after nearly eighty percent of build-up to the big summit push I found the denouement improbable and rushed and the ending disappointing. But before her group leaves the village for the base camp, a French climber is found dead under suspicious circumstances. And we will come to know the proficiencies of the local Sherpas who climb alongside the team adjusting ropes and setting up camps.
