25 years ago, Sarah Madden lost her husband to Mt. Everest. Ever since, she vowed to never speak its name again.The mountain that claimed her husband is now in her son's blood, and will not let go. But this time, she will not remain at home while her son climbs the killer peak. If the mountain is going to take him, it will have to do it staring her in the face.Frank Kincaid's reputation as the finest Everest expedition guide has supported his charity work in Khum Jung. With uncompromising methods, he has never lost a client on the mountain. But this group of expedition clients comes with a reminder of the past, and suddenly he is confronted with the memory of the disaster that took the life of his friend, Sherpa Pasang.Soon, history threatens to repeat itself... and they're all put to the ultimate test.Praise for The Lion of Khum Jung: "More than simply a mountain climbing tale, this is a story of love, dedication to duty, and rekindling hope, all set in the most dramatic backdrop in the world. Mr. Bagliere is a storyteller in the grand tradition of adventure writers. In the case of The Lion of Khum Jung, five stars are not enough." - Bob Dunbar, Amazon Review"A great mix of adventure, romance, drama and tragedy, with a documentary account of climbing and culture of people surrounding that region and the overwhelming mountain. I truly enjoyed it." - Joseph R. Caezza, Amazon Review
