Troop 402: A Novel

When a commuter plane crashes in a violent storm in the Canadian Rockies, four unlikely passengers must find a way to survive. Each will be tested in ways they can't imagine. Their chances seem impossible at the outset. A determined, obsessive boy scout, an arrogant 'Mr. America,' an old Italian deli man with a bad heart and a pretty flight attendant are thrown together on a Canadian mountainside. Before they can escape to civilization they must confront bad weather, a wounded grizzly bear, criminal trappers and each other. Their greatest test will be to learn to work together, to become a team, in this case, Troop 402.
