The Abominable - Dan Simmons

By the following year, three climbers a British poet and veteran of the Great War, a young French Chamonix guide, and an idealistic young American find a way to take their shot at the top.

They arrange funding from the grieving Lady Bromley, whose son also disappeared on Mt. Everest in 1924. Young Bromley must be dead, but his mother refuses to believe it and pays the trio to bring him home.

Deep in Tibet and high on Everest, the three climbers joined by the missing boy’s female cousin find themselves being pursued through the night by someone or something.

This nightmare becomes a matter of life and death at 28,000 feet but what is pursuing them?

And what is the truth behind the 1924 disappearances on Everest?

As they fight their way to the top of the world, the friends uncover a secret far more abominable than any mythical creature could ever be.
