Carter and his sister, Grace, thought the hike with their dad and their dog would be uneventful. But the hike on Blood Mountain soon turns ominous, as the siblings become separated from their father. They are lost, braving the wild elements, fighting to survive.

When Grace injures herself in a fall, Carter decides to set out alone to find help, leaving them both more vulnerable.
Told in alternating points of view, this tightly paced survival story will have readers on the edge of their seats.
