The book “The Trap” is a book based off the main character Daniel Henderson, who finds himself stuck in the Alaskan woods with a bear trap forged to his leg. This tragedy leaves Daniel to die in the Alaskan Frontier without food, heat, and protection. Daniel’s father is too busy to even notice that his own son is lost in the frigid cold. Daniel is relying on his Grandfather to send help to come and find him.
Dear Grandpa,
These harsh winters in the Alaskan frontier are worse than anything in the world. I am lost in the middle of the woods surrounded by predators, hungry, and cold. Stuck with a trap forged to my foot unable to be released. I have been starving and cold for the last three days. Never have I been this scared to be by myself in these frigid cold woods. All that I am asking for is to be rescued and taken home again, but Papa is too busy to even notice that I am missing. My .22 has failed me and my strength has left me to die. Please do what you must to find me.
Your Grandson,
Daniel
