The Great Death

This story is the tale of the last two survivors of one little village, two young sisters who had to save themselves . . . and in doing so, save one another. When chicken pox kills everyone in their village at the onset of winter, Millie and Maura, alone and frightened, strike out downriver with only two sled dogs as companions, searching for a settlement they have only heard about. It was a struggle for survival. Their journey took them across a vast and unforgiving wilderness through the teeth of winter. Their success is a testimony to their ingenuity and their resolve. An epic tale of endurance and persistance.
