About This Book

A band of young companions ventures into a wintry wilderness to build a remote camp and provision themselves, then confront escalating natural and human dangers. They hunt and trap for food, fend off wolves and a mountain cat, navigate dangerous ice and storms, and survive a sudden disaster and burial under snow. Tensions rise when mysterious strangers appear and a treacherous plot leads to abduction, chloroform, and desperate rides; resourcefulness, unexpected allies, and violent confrontations culminate in escape and the restoration of their freedom.
