AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'A robber has kidnapped Sam Fox and his two-year-old cousin Nissa during a tropical cyclone. When the getaway car crashes into the raging Crocodile River, Sam and Nissa must face one ordeal after another to survive. Sam fights to keep his head above water and Nissa out of the jaws of certain death. But the odds are against them. As the waters rise and the crocodiles close in, Sam must push himself to the limits of endurance.'
