Sequel to: An Arizona Christmas.

While heading to Reno for the holidays, Smoke Jensen and his family must do what it takes to survive when they are outgunned, outnumbered and out of luck after encountering a notorious gang of outlaws.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas in the High Sierras, but Smoke Jensen and his children, Louis and Denise, won't let a little snow stop them from heading to Reno for the holidays. There are two ways for them to get there: the long way, going around the Sierra Nevada Mountains, or the short way, going right through them. Smoke decides to take a gamble. They'll follow the trail that, decades earlier, brought the legendary Donner Party to a gruesome, tragic end. But the stagecoach passengers include a stranger who's planning to rob a bank. When a blizzard traps them in the mountains, the Jensens will be forced to do whatever it takes to survive. This time, they're hoping history doesn't repeat itself. But sometimes, the ghosts of the past just won't stay buried.
