What happens when a former Army officer says "yes" to the hardest conversation of her life-and the highest climb she's ever attempted? Rachel Davis thought she had left the battlefield behind. But when her father-also a Veteran-announced he was going to trek to Everest Base Camp alone, something in her shifted. In saying yes to the climb, she wasn't just saying yes to adventure. She was saying yes to confronting her past, her pain, and the complex father-daughter bond shaped by war, distance, and years of unspoken words. The Climb is more than a high-altitude memoir. It's a powerful meditation on leadership in uncertainty, the weight of legacy, and what it means to truly see someone before it's too late. With unflinching honesty and deep reverence for the Himalayas, Rachel brings readers into the altitude sickness, laughter, grief, and transformation that only the Khumbu can deliver. If you've ever wondered whether healing is possible-or whether the summit is worth the suffering-this book will meet you right where you are.
