The FBI team flies to Nepal, where the Senani Aadi Thakur's police team is inclined to ascribe a US yoga tourist's bloody killing to a beast, probably a yeti, which only Russ contemplates might even exist. The autopsy initially supports such theory, but concludes on an at least semi-human killer, fitting the conflicting indications found by tracker Matt. The yogi 'maharistri Pemb' was actually a Californian ex-con, but is found murdered himself, and locals keep quite about similar killings, due to Buddhist karma and to avoid scaring off tourists. Both police teams set out to search the 'killer yeti', while a profile theory links his psychopathic aggression to the recent earthquake body-count, confirmed in the cave lair.
