Killer Storm: the third and final book in the Everest Files trilogy by Matt Dickinson.
Teenage climber Ryan Hart is still in Nepal, working at a refugee centre with his Tibetan girlfriend, Tashi. His obsession with summiting Mount Everest is as strong as ever, but a climbing accident puts his plans on hold.
As soon as Ryan recovers, he and Tashi journey deep into the Himalaya. Old friends have come back into their lives and invited them on the adventure.

As they arrive at Base Camp, a violent terrorist attack kicks off. Ryan and his friends are held hostage.
