Additional information
by Mina Gavell (Author)
In the winter of 1959, nine students were found dead in the Russian wilderness. The official Soviet investigation was rushed and to this day, historians, scientists, journalists, and conspiracy theorists still question what really happened! Were they killed by an avalanche, a tornado, or perhaps a Yeti? Or maybe murdered after stumbling on a government secret?
Read the facts and the theories, then decide for yourself.
