Kanigher Falls is a little town in the middle of the desert, but its been really cold and they’ve even had black ice. Nate Banks is a resident and realizes that the snow smells really bad, like cabbage. When it’s discovered that Coldsnap has escaped from his prison, Nate puts two and two together and comes up with a plan to defeat him. Why does the snow smell like cabbage? Will his plan succeed?

An adventure filled with classic superheros and villains. Readers who are trying to transition to chapter books will enjoy the comic-style writing in the middle of the book, the entertaining characters, and the action throughout the books. Readers who like superheroes, adventure, and good versus evil.
