Fourteen-year-old Peak Marcello is in a tough spot. He has climbed and climbed and is almost at the top and now his cheek is stuck, and I mean his skin is attached. He summons his inner self, wrenches the cheek away, climbs to the top and prepares to "tag" this new summit when he hears the sound of a helicopter and the words, "You are under arrest." How does he get out of this one? Well, the solution will involve his father, Mt. Everest, and the Chinese authorities. Great adventure and lots of action. Perfect for kids who loved Hatchet.
