the long version

They rode out as the snow began to fall, a party of seven. Their purpose to rescue a band of travellers trapped by an avalanche in the high Bitterroot Mountains. But once clear of the Montana township of Wicker it is soon apparent that the on-coming winter blizzards are not the only threat to success. The swiftly assembled group have brought with them their own grievances and evils, and there can only be trouble ahead.
