‘Night was falling, dark and dank. The dog stood beside the wreckage, gazing up at the sky. Slowly a large red moon rose over the mountain, flooding the snow in bloody light. Ice lifted her muzzle to the moon and howled, long and sad”.

Fourteen-year-old Zac is staying with his dad and stepfamily in Wanaka. To drag him away from his relentless computer gaming, he’s allowed to choose a rescue dog. When Zac picks the dog with the startling ice-blue eyes, little does he know the danger that will unravel as the mystery around the dog becomes a terrifying fight for survival! This is an enthralling, exciting, seat-of-your-pants tale from one of our most admired ‘Young Adult’ authors. Susan has published over 50 books spanning fiction, non-fiction, the natural world, social history…but she is perhaps at her happiest when writing about animals and wildlife conservation. So put your kids on ‘Ice’ – it’s a wild adventure and they’re going to love it.
