Students from an uppity private school are setting out on a weekend adventure. They have all of the pieces in line, to get out of their dormitory by trying to convince (and eventually bribing) Mr. Chet that they have permission to leave for a tournament.
The prologue begins with a boy and a girl (the girl, originally, wasn’t even supposed to come along) who are lost in the woods during a snow storm. The girl thinks they are wandering around in circles, but at last, they see camp but they can tell something went wrong. They run back to see what happened.
The flash-forward ends as the book begins.
Grahame and Collin argue about who is the best basketball player of all time in the early morning, pre-dawn hours. They arrive at the front desk to their dorm and the dorm monitor, Mr. Chetsanoyev is skeptical as to their presence. After some negotiation and 4 NBA tickets, they are headed out the door. They are heading out to camp in Yosemite as part of their “Operation Cannabis Cove”. Collin is a scholarship kid while it seems the rest are pretty loaded with money. Graham, Collin and Ceo head out for their grand adventure. Ceo’s roommate (rhody) bailed on the trip. They are upset Rhody isn’t coming because of the “sacred poker vow”. Rhody is an extraordinarily scholastic individual and couldn’t risk the time away from campus. They’re unsure how the trip will proceed with just 3 people, but Grahame decides to carry on regardless. They stop by Big O Donuts on the way out,
One last random detail, Grahame is very insistent on bringing his ax.

I will definitely read this as it is released next year.
