On a day when school was canceled due to a threatening blizzard, Amy rode with her classmates in Mrs. Rhys's van until the road ended, then trudged through the snow to her home, Gwyntfa, where she lived with her grandmother, Mrs. Bowen. Once inside, Amy felt safe, reassured by her grandmother's well-stocked larder and the promise of a cozy snowed-in experience. They enjoyed each other's company, often sitting by the fire, working on a patchwork quilt, and playing cards before bed. However, on that snowy day, their routine was shattered by a growl from Amy's dog, a loud thump at the door, and an unexpected intrusion. Despite the uncertainty surrounding their intruder, Mrs. Bowen sensed he meant no harm. Over the next four extraordinary days, filled with tension and unexpected visitors, Amy learned her grandmother's instincts were correct. Set against the backdrop of a Welsh hill farm in winter, the story builds suspense as Amy and her grandmother confront a ruthless evil, captivating readers with its beautifully crafted narrative by a distinguished writer.
