From Lord Hunt's review:
'This book has all the ingredients of a series of "thriller" detective stories, with the added fascination that the searches and rescues described by Bob Maslen-Jones are true, and related by a first-hand witness:- the author himself....'

The combination of skilled mountain rescue teams and their dogs with the helicopter pilots of the Royal Air Force, adds further flavour to these gripping stories... permit me to recommend "Countdown to Rescue" to everyone who ventures upon our mountains, and to many others besides.
