Summary
Founded by patriarch Adam, the ski resort town of Mammoth Lakes in the Sierra Nevada Mountains in California is the site of the Mammoth Cup ski race - a qualifier for the Olympics. When Wylie Welborn, Adam's illegitimate grandson, returns after a stint in Afghanistan, it reopens a dark moment in Carson family history: the murder of Wylie's father by his jealous and very pregnant wife, Cynthia. As Wylie falls in love with April Holly, a beautiful celebrity snowboarder on track to win Olympic Gold, they begin to imagine a life away from the violence that has shattered his family - only to have history threaten to repeat itself and destroy them both. Combining exquisite writing with breathtaking scenes of high stakes skiing, this is an unforgettable story of two brothers on a ruthless quest for supremacy
