When young Irish/American climber, Liam Doyle, sets out to locate the
body of his father, high in the death zone of the savage mountain K2, he
is confronted by a series of inexplicable events.
Deeply troubled, he enlists the help of two friends, an ex-special
forces buddy and a Washington editor. Gradually and circuitously they
become aware of a globally influential group of scientists and
billionaires, set on a course that has the potential to wreak
atmospheric havoc on a planetary scale.
Against the background of a critical US election race, escalating
violence throughout Asia and hostility from much of the world's media,
they must risk their lives to expose the activities of this corrupt
cartel.No Killing Sky is the ultimate global thriller for our
times--12 countries, from the Himalayas to the Arctic, Washington to
Kazakhstan--and a race against time to prevent a catastrophe that could
soon claim the lives of more than a billion people.
