It's the harshest winter anyone can remember, and the vast waterways of the Fens are frozen solid, transformed into an Ice Road. Ideal conditions for a surprise invasion by young King Arnald's banished uncle! Even Wickit Monastery is under threat - a bitter illness has struck down almost all the Brothers and a ghost walks across the snow. How can the orphan Pip, and Perfect, the stone gargoyle, save the Brothers, their friend the King and their country?

Author Bio
Joan Lennon lives in the Kingdom of Fife, on the River Tay. The Kingdom is said to be shaped like a dog's head. If this is so, her flat is somewhere on the tip of the ear, which explains a lot. She has a husband, four tall sons and one short cat, and plans to go on writing forever.
