When Kristina falls off her horse in the middle of a snowstorm, she soon realises that her worst problem is not being lost and alone in the freezing forest. As dusk starts to fall, there are other dangers lurking in the shadows. She suddenly remembers the rumour that there is a wolf around. It’s the week before Christmas and life seems to good to be true at Wendelby horse riding camp. Kristina’s days are filled with hacks in the snow, treasure hunts, Christmas treats and cups of hot chocolate in front of the fire with her friends. But is there something brewing beneath the perfect surface?
Set in Sweden in the dusky, snowy days leading up to Christmas, this is a story about wolves, friendship, Vikings and a long lost treasure.
