When her mother left Sloan got lost in a blizzard and lost part of hearing. Ever since then she has been scared to be by herself. She can do many other things but not that. Then her father and sister decide to leave her alone while they go to a neighboring village to vote. They will only be gone for 2 days - what could go wrong?
Another blizzard is what could go wrong... Sloan and a handful of other villagers are stuck with little food, less fuel for the fire, one of them is injured, and their are hungry wolves all around. The group decide that the best thing to do is go to the river and take a boat to the neighboring village but the storm, the injuries (they keep mounting), and the wolves make everything slower and more dangerous. Who will survive?
Lots of action here for sure. I felt that in the end it was a bit too violent for my particular audience but for middle schoolers looking for a good adventure story this would fit the bill.
