Eighteen-year-old Javin has grown accustomed to death. Only the strong survive in a world burdened by an unending ice age, where food and fuel for heat are scarce. There is one resource for survival: a train that people kill to board. Javin doesn’t fear death. He has nothing to lose—none of the worthless do. They are slaves to the South, less than animals. So Javin’s determined to take a guard down with him—then his own death will be fair trade...

But whispers of a new hope are stirring: they say the sun waits behind the Southern wall. The rumors are surely more lies concocted by the South, nothing more. The last thing Javin needs is hope… until he meets others like him, others who were left for dead by their parents, others who make him feel compassion, love, and joy. Yet feeling is dangerous, for with caring comes responsibility. Now the worthless are looking to Javin for salvation and as much as his heart longs to, how can he possibly be their hero when he can't even save himself?

33 Degrees will chill you to the bone in this suspenseful novel by Vincent Robert Annunziato.
