The Frozen Escape

THE TEMPTATION AND TERROR OF TRANSITION: A SHORT STORY

Transition. The one-month period during early puberty when all children have the power to perform magic. But with a monstrous catch. The magic must be unique or the child dies. Only a desperate few take the risk. Almost all who do, perish.

Anya Terasova lives on the streets of Moscow, fighting for survival, battling the cruel winter and her addicted mother. Just eight days remain before Anya's transition ends and, with it, her last and only hope for a better life.

The Frozen Escape is based on a story that first appeared in The Scarlet Crane, volume one in the Transition magic series.
