ski weekend and having to watch after her brother and his best
friend, Gavin, to make sure they don't do anything stupid. Again.
Gavin may be gorgeous, but he and Sam have never gotten along. Now
they're crammed into an SUV with three other classmates and Gavin's
dog, heading on a road trip that can't go by fast enough. Then
their SUV crashes into a snowbank, and Sam and her friends find
themselves stranded in the mountains with cell phone coverage long
gone and temperatures dropping. When the group gets sick of waiting
for rescue, they venture outside to find help-only to have a
wilderness accident leave Sam's brother with a smashed leg and,
soon, a raging fever. While the hours turn to days, Sam's brother
gets sicker and sicker, and their food and supplies dwindle until
there isn't enough for everyone. As the winter elements begin to
claim members of the group one by one, Sam vows to keep her brother
alive. No matter what. Filled with twists, secrets, and
life-changing moments, Ski Weekend is a snow-packed survival
thriller featuring a diverse cast of teens that will appeal to fans
