Breathless is a high-altitude, high-stakes thriller that combines fascinating, authentic mountaineering experience with pure thriller entertainment. The suspense rises like the Nepalese mountain it is set on. Reminded me of the best of Michael Crichton, where in-depth knowledge and a masterful plot work together to create a tense adrenaline-fuelled ride. I loved it -- Matt Haig * Sunday Times bestselling author of The Midnight Library * If you're looking for a book to thrill and transport you, then Breathless is the read for you! Set high in the chilling Death Zone, this thriller had me on the edge of my seat. I loved being immersed in the competitive, high-stakes world of alpine climbing and Amy brilliantly evokes how risky this setting is, a setting that can only get deadlier with a murderer on the mountain... A must read for 2022 -- Sarah Pearse, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Sanatorium Stunning. Suffocatingly tense, highly original and exhilarating, Breathless is an early contender for thriller of the year * Daily Express * Tense, chilling and terrifying with unforgettable characters and an unpredictable and atmospheric plot. One of the most original thrillers I've read. It deserves to be huge! -- Claire Douglas, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Couple at No. 9 A vertigo-inducing page-turner by an author who brings the high-stakes world of expert mountain-climbing to life on the page -- Nita Prose, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Maid Gripping. Thrilling. A visceral account of a novice's struggles with thin air and exhaustion * Sunday Times * This thriller would be unsettling enough at sea level, but in the death zone, it's suffocatingly tense. McCulloch combines extreme mountaineering with murder to create a novel that's chilling, vivid, and entirely unique. -- Abigail Dean, Sunday Times bestselling author of Girl A The ultimate high-altitude mountain thriller. Ice-cold, twisting, deadly and doesn't put a foot wrong. It took me on a chilling journey to the death zone, and I loved it! -- Janice Hallett, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Appeal A blockbuster worthy thriller * OK! * Nail-biting, chilling, totally exhilarating - a true triumph -- Stacey Halls, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Familiars I loved it. I read it in two sittings. It was so tense by the end, the air in my bedroom felt as thin as in the mountains. I think it's a total triumph of a thriller. -- Gillian McAllister, Sunday Times bestselling author of That Night Set on an expedition to climb one of the world's tallest mountains, Breathless is an addictive, tightly plotted thriller that will leave you chilled to the bone -- Lucy Clarke, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Castaways I have climbed Manaslu with Amy, she's a very positive thinker with good energy to be around on the mountain - she is the real deal -- Nirmal "Nimsdai" Purja * star of Netflix's 14 Peaks and author of the Sunday Times bestseller Beyond Possible * If you liked Shiver by Allie Reynolds, you'll really enjoy this. Rich in authentic detail, it's a nail-biting novel * Woman's Weekly * A breathtaking book set at 8000 metres - the air alone can kill you, and there's a killer on the loose too. I absolutely loved this, the author's incredible knowledge of mountaineering really shone through - a real page-turner that I read in a couple of days. Tense, terrifying and fascinating in equal measure. -- Catherine Cooper, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Chalet A tense, absorbing thriller with the most spectacular setting imaginable. It's bleak, beautiful and powerfully atmospheric. I couldn't put it down -- Jennifer Saint, Sunday Times bestselling author of Ariadne Breathless is both a fascinating insight into the world of high-altitude mountaineering and a chilling, twisty thriller. Absorbing and atmospheric -- Louise O'Neill, bestselling author of Afte
