Alex falls under the spell of an ancient demon-and turns away from his sister, his homeworld, and his search for his father.
Stories say Yuki-onna, the Snow Woman, drinks the blood of those bold enough to walk through her woods-the very woods Alex must cross as Minokichi, a young Japanese workman. If Alex has learned anything in his search for his father through Alterworld myths, it's that the worst stories have a terrible habit of coming true. So he shouldn't be surprised when a beautiful woman emerges from the blizzard that torments him. Someone so beautiful couldn't hide an ugly soul, yet this stranger may be the greatest danger Alex has ever had to face.
Genre: Children's Fiction
