A Clint Eastwood action thriller (which he also directed) about international intrique that takes place on the Swiss Alps. Eastwood plays a retired professional assassin who has turned toward the calmer pursuit of art collecting. Suddenly, he is forced out of retirement and finds himself on the hunt for a deadly double agent who has murdered his close friend. The hunt takes Eastwood on a breathtaking journey up the Swiss Alps with a team of mountain climbers. One member of the team is the man he seeks, though his identity is as yet unknown. This top-notch action film, based on the novel by Trevanian, features some of the most exciting mountain-climbing sequences ever filmed.
