“When school starts this fall my teacher will want to know what each student did this past summer; but my story will top them all.” A summer vacation in New Mexico takes an ominous turn as the peaceful sound of the wind in the tall pines is dramatically replaced by a life-challenging adventure that takes place in an unimaginable world devoid of all sensibilities. Overcoming almost certain death requires perseverance, fortitude, unforeseen assistance—and the miraculous help of something completely unanticipated.
