THEY FACED DEATH TWICE. FROM THE ENEMY. AND FROM THE EIGER. THE MOUNTAIN. The Eiger, the white killer. High in the Swiss Alps looms the North face, blizzard-swept, ice-covered, the ultimate challenge and terror to climbers. THE MAN. Erich Spengler, German Wehrmacht, the world's best climber who is haunted by the specter of death. In his heart he still retains the unreasoning drive to conquer the unconquerable. THE WOMAN. Dr. Helene Rossner, beautiful and compassionate, she is not what she seems to be. Cold and dangerous, her treachery will be death to those who trust her. THE MISSION. Summer 1944. Climb the unclimbable. Invade the impregnable OSS-defended experimental laboratory. For high atop the killer mountain sits Dr. Lasser, the distinguished Allied scientist, who possesses the precious secret-the secret of the atomic bomb.
