"Avalanche surprised me with its depth...a 5-star read..." -For the Love of Literature
Five friends. One moonlit summit. An unforgettable journey.
Excitement hangs in the air as Marlee and her sisters join their friends on a daring hike up a Colorado mountain - in the middle of the night. When Sawyer first proposes the idea of a moonlit summit during the two families' annual backpacking trip, Marlee is terrified but also hooked. Having grown up taking trips to the mountains, they've learned a thing or two about hiking, and Sawyer is confident they'll be back by sunrise. But when disaster strikes, their knowledge, faith, and stamina will be put to the test. Digging out of the cemented snow is the first of many challenges in the coming days, and now Marlee has to trust Sawyer, who, by the way, was the brain behind the dilemma. Will their faith and friendship survive, or will they cave under pressure?
This engaging journey, told by fifteen-year-old Marlee Stanley, captures a timeless sense of adventure. The five young adults strive to exhibit godly character throughout their escapade, but it will take immense strength to hike out of this mess.
"I know that if their journey inspired me, it will certainly inspire others...Boyle has brought YA fans an uplifting, adventurous novel." -A Baker's Perspective
