The Contest

Rival travel guides Florence and Jacob are selected to lead two groups climbing Kilimanjaro, a challenge set by their eccentric boss. It's an annual getaway with their exclusive clientele, but this time the stakes are higher than ever before — because whoever wins will claim the ultimate prize: the top job.

For Florence, this trip was already about much more than winning. Unbeknownst to her colleagues, she's on the hunt for answers after a tragic accident at a prior retreat left her fiancé in a coma. And for Jacob, it was only ever about one thing: impressing his father, the owner of the company.

But when one of their fellow team members is killed in suspicious circumstances, they realise that the stakes are about more than winning or losing. It may be a fight to the death.
