Some people live for the thrill. Some people die for it . . .
A woman lies dead in the shadow of a Rocky Mountain peak. To the police who found her, she was just another thrill-seeking climber who fell to her death. But to a cop who has climbed all his life, this fall was no accident. He knows that a killer is in these mountains, and that the next victim has already been chosen. Now the only way to stop a series of murders is to go where the killer is - up to the pinnacle of terror . . .
A climber by nature, a cop by trade, Special Agent Antonio Burns has come to Wyoming to investigate a young woman's deadly plunge. He knows the hunger that drives climbers up the faces of mountains - it's a hunger that has shaped his life and pushed his brother onto the wrong side of the law. But as he digs deeper into the case, Burns is certain he has found a murder - and a startling connection to the trial of two men about to be executed for a crime they did not commit.
But time is running out. As two lives hang in the balance, another woman is killed and Burns believes the answers are hidden amid a dangerous group of climbers. But he must make a harrowing ascent up a forbidding mountainside to bring the killer down from the deadliest kind of high . . .
Combining high-altitude climbing action with sizzling courtroom drama and raw tension, 'The Edge Of Justice' races to a white-knuckle climax on treacherous high altitude terrain.
