About the book
None of the member of Group 6 chose Coldbrook Country School for themselves. It was chosen for them by their parents. So when they were told to hike to a rough campsite deep in the woods as part of orientation, they didn't think to ask questions. But Nat Rittenhouse, the assigned orientation leader hadn't exactly chosen Coldbrook either. His job was not to teach the members of Group 6, it was to make sure they never came out of the woods alive. Who would have thought their own parents were footing the bill?
