About this listen
From the #1 New York Times bestselling duo, renowned archaeologist Nora Kelly and FBI Agent Corrie Swanson investigate a mystery so enigmatic it may have no solution.
In 2008, nine mountaineers failed to return from a winter backpacking trip in the New Mexico mountains. At their final campsite, searchers found a bizarre scene: something had appeared at the door of their tent so terrifying that it impelled them to slash their way out and flee barefoot to certain death in a blizzard. Despite a diligent search, only six bodies were found, two violently crushed and inexplicably missing their eyes. The case, given the code name “Dead Mountain” by the FBI, was never solved.
Now, two more bodies from the lost expedition are unexpectedly discovered in a cave, one a grisly suicide. Young FBI Agent Corrie Swanson teams up with archaeologist Nora Kelly to investigate what really happened on that fateful trip fifteen years ago—and to find the ninth victim. But their search awakens a long-slumbering evil, which pursues Corrie and Nora with a vengeance, determined to prevent the final missing corpse from ever coming to light.

Story
An 11-year-old boy's violated corpse is found in a town park. Eyewitnesses and fingerprints point unmistakably to one of Flint City's most popular citizens. He is Terry Maitland, Little League coach, English teacher, husband, and father of two girls. Detective Ralph Anderson, whose son Maitland once coached, orders a quick and very public arrest. Maitland has an alibi, but Anderson and the district attorney soon add DNA evidence to go with the fingerprints and witnesses. Their case seems ironclad.

In February 1959, a group of nine experienced hikers in the Russian Ural Mountains died mysteriously on an elevation known as Dead Mountain. Eerie aspects of the incident—unexplained violent injuries, signs that they cut open and fled the tent without proper clothing or shoes, a strange final photograph taken by one of the hikers, and elevated levels of radiation found on some of their clothes—have led to decades of speculation over what really happened.

buy the hard copy
worst reader I've heard. sound quality resembles an empty concrete hallway. nearly every man sounds the exact same, and it doesn't even sound like a real accent. nobody talks like this. the story is good, even though reminiscent of previous tales of corrie and Nora.
wish I could get a refund. I usually wait to the hard cover to read first and I wish I had again. ruined the immersion and any progress of character development.

Good book - bad choice of the narrator
It was very difficult to stay with the story because of the narrator.
I felt I was listening to my grandmother reading the lines of the big bad wolf.
Any time a male character was depicted, the female narrator tried to a have deep growly voice. Sounded pretty ridiculous.
I would definitely recommend skipping “romance” scene unless you want to feel you are a part of a Saturday Night skit.

Not a Nora Kelly story
This isn't a bad story - it actually has a lot of great aspects. But it isn't about Nora Kelly. It focuses primarily on FBI agent C. Swanson. It is her path through events that drive the plot, and her fate that is at the centre of events.
The narrator is getting a lot of criticism in the reviews. I don't think she did that badly, but it IS difficult to tell her character voices apart at times. I would listen to the next installment with the samr narrator - she did okay.
The ending of the story lets down its potential. It wraps up too quickly (under 40 mins) and too predictably with no real twists or turns to make it interesting. And at the end of it all, Nora Kelly hasn't really been integral to anything.

Confusing story not helped by poor narration
I generally am a big fan of these authors, but I have to say I was underwhelmed by this book. I found it difficult to keep track of all the characters, and this wasn’t helped by the narration, which I found to be kind of wooden and uninteresting.

Another winner!
4.5 Stars 🌟
Another winner.
I REALLY have found that I like this writing duo. I'm a huge fan of the Pendergast series and I have enjoyed reading their new spinoff series featuring Nora and Agent Sanson. This book is no different.
As usual, Agent Swanson gets involved in a unusual case and calls on her "maybe" friend, archeologist Nora Kelly. Agent Swanson is just now getting out from under the desk duty that she has been on since the last case that almost got her and Nora killed. She is given a new mentor (Agent Sharp) and they are called out to a cave where some bones have been found. She is to determine if the bones are human, and from this time - which would make it a murder - or if these are bones from the past, and therefore might have some historical value. The book takes off from there. Where the story goes is actually kind of crazy.
The one thing that I really liked was the fact that I had seen the photograph and the explanation of the actual expedition that this was based on sometime in the past year when the story came out in Preston & Childs monthly newsletter. They gave the details of the true teams circumstances and for some reason, that made this book all the better because it was based on events that really did occur.
I liked the way that they were able to build up the drama and kept the storyline moving throughout the entire book. I also will admit that I had no clue what to expect and when the reveal came along and we got the "ta da" moment, I was truly surprised.
I love it when that happens.
I wasn't a fan of the narrator, so while I did enjoy getting able to listen to the story in the audio format, the actual narrator did pull me out of the story on several occasions. I'll need to go and look up the narrator from the last couple of books and see if this was the same narrator.
All in all, another win for me. Now the wait begins for book 5 :)

Masterful storytellers
Another great novel by the masterful storytellers. I read the book and listened to the audiobook.

Good story bad performance
Almost had to give this up as the performer made the main character sound like a little girl. Her voice was pleasant while narrating the main story but struggled with male characters etc. I enjoyed the story though.

Excellent novel!
Preston and Child always do a great job in weaving a suspenseful tale. This one was no different! The only thing that took me out of the story a little was the narrator’s rendition of several of the male characters, which all sounded like Nelson from the Simpsons…
