A gorgeous, snowy adventure, set in the wilds of Siberia, full of magic and wonder, for junior readers.

A world of magic is only a whisper away…

Born in a Soviet prison camp, Lina has never seen the world outside until the night she escapes with her best friend, Bogdan. As the pair journey across a snowy wilderness, they are pursued by a vengeful sorceress and her pack of shadow wolves. The children will need every ounce of courage – and a whisper of magic – if they are to survive… Perfect for fans of Abi Elphinstone, Sophie Anderson and Catherine Doyle.

Book Features:

With gorgeous chapter illustrations by Rovina Cai, the illustrator of Patrick Ness' And the Ocean Was Our Sky.
With the atmosphere of The Wolf Wilder, the fairy-tale magic of The House with Chicken Legs , and the adventure of Sky Song.

Industry Reviews

A tale that sparkles with frosty magic. * Thomas Taylor *
It's a thick book and some chapters are scary but it's so interesting and surprising that you won't want to put it down! * Layla (Age 10), National Geographic Kids *
An engrossing first novel by Katharine Orton...this is fantasy at its glutinous best. * The Daily Telegraph, Books of the Year - Children's & Stocking Fillers *
It's an unusual juxtaposition - the harsh world of political prisoners in a forced labour camp versus one of ice castles, spirit children and giant eagles. Katharine Orton pulls it off brilliantly. * Bookseller *
The children will need every ounce of courage - and a whisper of magic - if they are to survive. Perfect for fans of Abi Elphinstone, Sophie Anderson and Catherine Doyle. * Librarian's Book Choice, School Zone *
