When she decides to photograph the snowy landscape and the creatures that live in it, Lily thinks she’s finally found a way to enjoy herself … until surprise encounters with a lost dog and a wild cat turn her outing into a deadly nightmare. Will Lily survive the rapidly falling temperatures and make it home alive? And will she ever find friendship under a parrot sky?
