"The morning of January 12, 1888, was warm enough for the children of the Dakota Territory to return to school without their heavy coats--leaving them unprepared when a terrifying, fast-moving blizzard blew in without warning.

Schoolteachers were faced with an impossible decision: Keep the children inside, to risk freezing to death when fuel ran out, or send them home, praying they wouldn't get lost in the storm? Based on actual oral histories of survivors, this gripping novel follows the stories of Raina and Gerda Olsen, two sisters, both schoolteachers--one becomes a hero of the storm and the other finds herself ostracized in the aftermath. It's also the story of Anette Pedersen, a servant girl whose miraculous survival touches the heart of Gavin Woodson, a newspaperman seeking redemption. It was Woodson and others like him who wrote the embellished news stories that lured northern European immigrants across the sea to settle a pitiless land. They didn't care what lies they told these families to get them there--or whose land it originally was."--  |c Provided by publisher.
