I liked it but it felt like it took a long time for the 'ghost' part of the 'ghost story' to get going. 

Spoiler: the dog survives.

All the main characters are horrible people . The "coolies" ( hideous" name for the porters of the Himalayas who carried these daft clowns and their equipment and Cedric the dog are the only nice ones in the entire story. But I suppose that adds to the tale!
