The Contest Av Karen Hamilton

THE TRIP OF A LIFETIME. A PRIZE WORTH KILLING FOR. We call it the Great Escape.The annual trip where my boss asks us expert travel guides to escort a group of privileged, uber-wealthy clientele on some far-flung expedition, a cut-throat contest for riches and glory. The stakes have never been higher, nor the challenge harder: I must summit Mount Kilimanjaro before my rival guide to win the ultimate prize. But this once-in-a-lifetime trip was never about winning to me.I'm here for answers, even if no one is ready to give them up. By the time we reach the top I will have the truth, if it kills me. THE QUESTION IS, HOW FAR WILL THEY GO TO KEEP ME QUIET?Praise for Karen Hamilton:'Fabulously dark' Harriet Tyce'An irresistible slice of escapism' TM Logan'Full of twists and turns, it will keep you furiously turning the pages' Sarah Pearse'Compelling, absorbing and highly entertaining.'
