1683年的倫敦遭逢嚴寒，泰晤士河結成厚冰，河面上搭起熱鬧市集。Thomasina與好友Anne在冰上販售糖果，也聽著夜晚才會現身的Frost Fair傳說。據說，只要找到Father Winter，任何願望都能成真。Thomasina唯一的心願，是讓失去的雙胞胎哥哥Arthur回來。
本書以真實歷史為底色，揉合奇幻與懸疑，帶出一段關於失落與選擇的旅程。當兩人踏入Father Winter的國度，才明白願望並非單純的恩賜，而是牽動更深的代價。故事節奏流暢，氛圍冷冽而溫柔，友情在風雪中顯得格外珍貴。A F Steadman讚其情感深度與明快情節並存，《Kirkus》亦稱其氣氛濃厚，引人入勝。本書適合在冬日靜讀，感受寒意與微光交織的力量。

An amazing and captivating, curl-up-on-the-sofa debut about a magical frost fair and the lasting power of friendship, perfect for fans of Tamzin Merchant, Abi Elphinstone and Anna James.
The Great Frost of 1683 has London in its icy grip.
Thomasina and her best friend Anne sell sweets on the frozen Thames, amid rumours of the magical Frost Fair that awakens there at night. They say if you can find the fair, Father Winter himself will grant you any wish.
And Thomasina has an impossible wish: the return of her twin brother, Arthur.
But once they discover Father Winter's kingdom, Thomasina and Anne quickly realize the Frost Fair is not what it seems – and that some wishes never come for free.
