Matterhorn

Robbie Steinhardt lives quietly in a small alpine village, tending cattle and keeping to himself. He rarely thinks about his earlier life, when he was Mac Dekker of the CIA and left behind a family and a lover.

That peace ends when he learns that his son Will has died following in his footsteps. Mac wants answers. What mission drew Will into the high alpine country, and why is Ilya Ivashka on the same trail? Ilya was his close friend and his rival in love, and he is the man who framed Mac for treason and drove him into hiding.

Mac returns to the field after years away to uncover the secrets Will kept. He soon faces the enormous task of stopping a terrorist plot that threatens thousands of lives, in a world of double agents where it is hard to know who can be trusted.

Matterhorn is an alpine thriller by Christopher Reich.
