After angering a local gangster, seventeen-year-old Sena Korhosen must flee with the gangster' s prize fighting wolf, Iska, in tow. A team of scientists offer to pay her way off her frozen planet on one condition: she gets them to the finish line of the planet' s infamous sled race. Though Sena always swore she' d never race after it claimed both her mothers' lives, it' s now her only option. But the tundra is a treacherous place, and as the race unfolds and their lives are threatened at every turn, Sena starts to question her own abilities. She must discover whether she' s strong enough to survive the wild-whether she and Iska together are strong enough to get them all out alive.
