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.

Nevertell is a lovelymix of fantasy and historical fiction, ideal for those aged 8-12. While it tackles some darker moments in Russia's history and the main character's life, it largely explores friendship, magic and the icy scenery of Russia. The writing is wonderfully atmospheric but the plot is felt a little basic, and could have been more complex. Nevertheless, it's fun and easy to read. - Laura (QBD)
