✦ Synopsis

In an ice cave high on a forbidden Himalayan mountaintop, renegade
climber Jack Furness unearths a perfectly preserved skull, a fossil that
may be the missing link and the scientific discovery of the century. To
Berkeley paleoanthropologist Stella Swift, the miraculous find warrants
an immediate expedition up the mountain's treacherous Fish Tail Peak.
But with neighboring Pakistan and India on the brink of nuclear
catastrophe, the Pentagon and the GA have their own designs on the
remote site. Now, they're all about to enter a domain where one of
nature's fiercest creations has thrived for millions of years -- and
modern man was never meant to be.
