The Contest

by Karen Hamilton

THE TRIP OF A LIFETIME. A PRIZE WORTH KILLING FOR.

'Brilliant twists and an absolutely killer reveal in the final pages' READER REVIEW
'I flew through this in a day' READER REVIEW
'Karen Hamilton is the queen of thrillers' READER REVIEW

'Peak tension and perfect plotting' Victoria Selman

'Exhilarating and addictive' Prima

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?
