Wolves, like children, are not born to lead calm lives.
Feo's live is extraordinary. She and her mother train domesticated wolves to fend for themselves in the snowy wilderness of Russia. She loves working with the wolves, especially the three that have been wilded but refuse to leave Feo. They're half-wild, not pets.
But not everyone is an enamored with the wolves--especially General Rakov, who intends to take everything Feo loves. And soon, in order to save her mother, Feo must travel through the icy woods to St. Petersburg--and lean to trust strangers whose lives have been similarly tainted by the general's cruel deeds.
Katherine Rundell returns with an enchanting novel about love, survival--and wolves.
