A prince of Polar bears, Alexie knew of the old ways, knowledge passed down from his mother and generations of she-bears before her. With no one to rely on but himself, it is his knowledge of the land that keeps him alive, though game is scarce. Choosing to forage near human camps, he finds himself in a different kind of bind – captured, his time is running out.
Noah and Natasha are an unexpected surprise, they value his life, and for once Alexie is not alone. Neither are quite what they seem, nor apparently, is he. Just as Alexie is learning to navigate the human world, he must teach them how to survive as they flee across the sea of snow and ice.

In the harshest of environments, he’s the key to their escape and survival.

This is a stand alone novel that may be read after the Wolfgen trilogy, or on its own.
