    About this audiobook

    A Cessna float plane is chartered by a young woman for a scientific venture into the wilderness of northern Canada. Disaster strikes when their plane crashes and three people are injured and stranded in bitter cold. After the initial shock, hopelessness sets in, but Jim Peters is a full-blooded Ojibway and knows how to survive in the wilderness, as does Carlin, the pilot. The pair combine their skills and prepare for a life and death struggle against the worst conditions nature has to offer. This story is based on a true survival occurrence in Canada in 1952.

      Well written! Kept me engaged through their story!
      Thank you !
    • 5/5
      First half was survival story which was quite good. Second half wasn’t as good as a bit unrealistic with the ongoing good fortune. The Native American focus was interesting.
