The village leader is starting to ask questions. The monsters in the forest are growing bold and restless. Lia is startled to find that Gabe is empathetic and intelligent - and handsome. The Elders have always described the advanced society of people beyond the Frost, the “Farthers,” as ruthless and cruel. Giving shelter to the fugitive could get her in trouble. But when her sister finds a fugitive bleeding to death in the forest, a young man from beyond the Frost named Gabe, Lia does the unthinkable. With dangers on all sides, she can't afford to let her emotions lead her astray. After the monsters kill her parents, she must keep the family farm running or risk losing her siblings to reassignment by the village Elders. In the icy, monster-plagued world of the Frost, compassion might get a person killed, and Lia Weaver knows this better than anyone.
