When Amy doesn't show up to baby-sit, Erin knows that something must be terribly wrong. But who will believe her? Not her parents, not even the police. They all tell Erin the same thing -- Amy is irresponsible -- so Erin decides to take things into her own hands. She persuades Tiffany, her new science partner, to do a project on animal tracks, figuring the project will give her an excuse to search for Amy. While the two girls are in the woods, a sudden spring blizzard strikes. Erin and Tiffany are now snowbound, with only one thought -- survival.
"The simplicity and intensity of this adventure will satisfy many children, particularly those who like Gary Paulsen's HATCHET." --

"The two girls prove their resourcefulness...in this well-written...adventure story." --
