Summary At the stroke of midnight on the dawn of December, five-year-old Finn Albedo is found frozen in the city park on a pedestal of ice. The doctor says his heart is beating, he is smiling serenely, but no one can wake him. Finn's big sister, Bianca begins to suspect that the beautiful sparkling book Finn got from the library has something to do with it but the mysterious book has vanished and no one will listen. Each day, more children are frozen and Bianca realises she's running out of time. Is there a connection between the peculiar stranger wearing a top hat and the disappearing books? The search for truth hurls Bianca into a fantastical winter wonderland where all is not as it seems. Can Bianca remember her mission and find a way to save her brother and the other Ice Children before all their hearts are lost forever?
