Summary:
"Twins Viktor and Nadya are twelve years old when Hitler's Germany declares war on the Soviet Union. With little notice, the city's children are evacuated on trains that are meant to take them to safety. Shockingly, Viktor and Nadya are separated, and disaster befalls them both. As the terrible confilect rages, each embarks on a desperate race across snow and ice, struggling through the destruction in an effort to be reunited . . ."-- publisher
