A man from Raedrick Baletier and Julian Hinderbrook's past turns up on the outskirts of Lydelton, nearly dead from exposure and telling of an injured comrade on the flanks of Tollard's Peak, the tallest mountain in the region.
Despite the harsh winter conditions, the constables form a rescue party and set off to find the injured man.
But the elements are not the only danger that waits to strike down the unwary in the mountains surrounding Glimmer Vale.
Tollard's Peak is the third book of the Glimmer Vale Chronicles, an action-packed trek through a world of valor and magic.
