Return To Dyatlov Pass by J.H. Moncrieff


In 1959, nine Russian students set off on a skiing expedition in the Ural Mountains. Their mutilated bodies were discovered weeks later. Their bizarre and unexplained deaths are one of the most enduring true mysteries of our time.

Nearly sixty years later, podcast host Nat McPherson ventures into the same mountains with her team, determined to finally solve the mystery of the Dyatlov Pass incident. Her plans are thwarted on the first night, when two trackers from her group are brutally slaughtered.

The team’s guide, a superstitious man from a neighboring village, blames the killings on yetis, but no one believes him. As members of Nat’s team die one by one, she must figure out if there’s a murderer in their midst—or something even worse—before history repeats itself and her group becomes another casualty of the infamous Dead Mountain.

MY REVIEW: 4 Stars ⭐️ 

"Are you aware of the note the searchers found in Dyatlov’s tent?" Steven asked.
Nat was, and she felt chilled in a way that had nothing to do with the cold. "It said, From now on we know that snowmen exist."




"The snowmen. This land belongs to the snowmen."




The woman fell backward, exposing a swollen face that was purple with bruises. Where her nose and eyes should have been were torn, bloody holes.




I read this book as part of my Horror Group Challenge! I started and couldn’t put it down. I must say I’m not sure how I feel with that ending. Anyhoo, I loved the book about what happened at Dyarlov’s Pass, I mean you never really know....

I loved all of the characters, some more than others, and naturally that’s not the thing to do in horror books! Sighhhhhhhh!

I love the take on what happened to the original people and what happened to this group of people and also what one of the guides mentions about his tribe and the situation.

All in all, I enjoyed the book! Thank you author, Glenn Rolfe for the recommendation!
