About This Book

The story follows three brothers when the prank-loving Tom disappears under mysterious circumstances, prompting Sam and Dick to mount a cross-country search that leads them from college life through Chicago and Seattle to the Alaskan frontier. Their pursuit unfolds as a sequence of clues and narrow escapes amid mountains, cliffs, slides, violent storms, and vast fields of ice, testing endurance and ingenuity. Encounters with allies and adversaries shape their progress, and the plot culminates in a hazardous rescue and the brothers' return, with recurring themes of courage, loyalty, and survival in remote wilderness.
