| Its shadow falls on a vertical rock face being climbed by Peter Garrett, his father and sister Annie. Suddenly, a backpack hurtles by, followed rapidly by two climbers, whose ropes tear the male Garretts from the rock face. The excruciatingly tense sequence ends in tragedy. Then at the Himalayas, where tycoon Elliott Vaughn has financed an expedition that will take him to the summit of K2--the world's second highest mountain. Annie is one of Elliott's party. In the face of a threatening storm, Elliott recklessly insists the climb should continue. The storm duly arrives and decimates the expedition, leaving Elliott and Annie stranded. Peter leads a group of climbers--including the grizzled Montgomery Wick and a French-Canadian nurse)--in a rescue attempt.
