Seven men. Seven stories. One mountain.

July 14th, 1865. Seven men stand atop the Matterhorn, Switzerland's most famous peak. Led by Englishman Edward Whymper, they have beaten a rival Italian party to attain the summit of 'The Impossible Mountain'.

Triumph turns to disaster on the descent when young Douglas Hadow, the novice of the party, slips and drags three other climbers 4,000 feet to their deaths.

At least that is the conclusion of the official inquiry. The case remains the most notorious mountaineering tragedy of all and is subject to grisly speculation to this day.

Mike Lewis's THE ICARUS ASCENT is a gripping historical adventure based on true events.
