About This Book

A safety-minded boys' club in a snowbound northern town gathers for routine meetings until their leader, Sam Parker and his comrades face escalating challenges that culminate in a sudden, rising flood. The story follows their preparations, valley explorations, tests of courage and ingenuity, long-night endurance, and rescue efforts as friendships, practical skills, and responsibility are strained and strengthened. Episodes combine everyday schoolboy adventure with inventive problem-solving and moral lessons about prudence and solidarity, as individual members learn from mistakes and contribute to the group's safety.
