Bookroo's summary

Scotty and his friends are trapped in their high school as a relentless blizzard rages on. With no rescue in sight, the power fails, the heat vanishes, and the building becomes a frozen prison. As the snow piles up and the days stretch on, the group faces chilling decisions that could mean life or death. Can they find a way out before it's too late, or will the storm claim them all? Tensions rise, alliances form, and survival instincts kick in as they confront the ultimate test of endurance.

From the publisher

A chilling YA thriller from critically acclaimed author Michael Northrop.The day the blizzard started, no one knew that it was going to keep snowing for a week. That for those in its path, it would become not just a matter of keeping warm, but of staying alive. . . .Scotty and his friends Pete and Jason are among the last seven kids at their high school waiting to get picked up that day, and they soon realize that no one is coming for them. Still, it doesn’t seem so bad to spend the night at school, especially when distractingly hot Krista and Julie are sleeping just down the hall. But then the power goes out, then the heat. The pipes freeze, and the roof shudders. As the days add up, the snow piles higher, and the empty halls grow colder and darker, the mounting pressure forces a devastating decision. . . .
