"This isn't about boy meets girl. It's about survival." Eight people are left stranded at Tattawa Regional High School when a week long nor'easter blizzard brought 8 feet of snow. One teacher, Ms. Gossell, went for help, but the kids don't know what happened to him. He never came back. The power fails, the heat doesn't work, pipes burst so there is no water, food is only available in limited supplies through dark runs to the cafeteria...and the roof is collapsing. Scotty Weeks builds a pair of clumsy snow shoes after the sled Jason built flips. He sets out to help Pete...but "you get mean pushing yourself past exhaustion in the freezing cold on the day your friend died." Is Scotty a hero?..
Occam's razor - The simplest solution is usually the best one.
