Summary
This novel retells the ill-fated journey of the Donner party across the Sierra Nevadas during the winter of 1846-1847. In 1846, a group of emigrants bound for California face a choice: continue on their planned route or take a shortcut into the wilderness. Eighty-nine of them opt for the untested trail, a decision that plunges them into danger and desperation and, finally, the unthinkable.
