Review

This is a survival story that will keep readers on the edge of their seats. Victoria is a champion musher in Alaska. On a routine run with her sled dogs she encounters an injured novice snowmobiler. Chris has just moved to the area from a large city. The two end up being lost in an unexpected snowstorm fighting for their lives in the wilderness. Chris has no wilderness experience and makes some serious mistakes, yet has the skills that could help them reach safety. This well written novel offers a wealth of information about sled dogs and winter survival tactics. The characters are believable and well developed. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys adventure stories.

Overall Book Score: excellent
