"Brims with suspense... A brisk, delightful tale of family, courage, and a chilly monster." -- Kirkus Reviews Stranded on a collapsing frozen lake, two 14-year-olds find themselves trapped in a mythic entity's nightmarish hunting grounds. Despite being horrified by the idea of taking even a single step onto the ice, Falc, a shy newbie to northern ways, tracks his mentally-deteriorating grandpa to a seasonal ice fishing shanty town atop Lake Blackbird. Falc unexpectedly bonds with the quirky community of fisher-people, including a chainsaw-obsessed ice sculptor and Aiyanna, a tobogganing-daredevil from school. But when new friends and family all vanish, Falc and Aiyanna must begin a desperate quest for survival, plunging after the community into a frigid labyrinth of mystifying ice fishing hole portals... the domains of a terrifying presence and lurking secrets. 2022 Annual Top 5 Book Award For Excellence -- Write With Light
