Unable to accept his death as truth, Yasmin and Ruby set out into the hostile winter of the Alaskan tundra in search of answers. But as a storm closes in, Yasmin realizes that a very human danger may be keeping pace with them. And with no one else on the road to help, they must keep moving, alone and terrified, through an endless Alaskan night. **A Playaway is an audiobook device that is about the size of a small deck of playing cards. It only requires one (1) AAA battery to play and headphones or ear buds to listen to the Playaway audiobook. The Playaway device is light, compact and there are no CDs, cassettes, downloads or subscriptions needed to make the Playaway work. Similar to almost any CD player, the Playaway device allows for the volume to be adjusted, chapter selection and skipping ahead in a chapter as well using the buttons on the Playaway device. The Playaway device also has a digital display that indicates information such as the chapter, time played or remaining in each chapter and the battery power level. Thank you.** |
