From the publisher

From Danielle Paige, the New York Times bestselling author of Dorothy Must Die, comes a re-imagining of The Snow Queen fairy tale. Seventeen-year-old Snow has spent the majority of her life within the walls of the Whittaker Institute, a high security mental hospital in upstate New York. Deep down, she knows she’s not crazy and doesn’t belong there. When she meets a mysterious, handsome new orderly and dreams about a strange twisted tree she realizes she must escape and figure out who she really is. Using her trusting friend Bale as a distraction, Snow breaks free and races into the nearby woods. Suddenly, everything isn’t what it seems, the line between reality and fantasy begins to blur, and she finds herself in icy Algid–her true home–with witches, thieves, and a strangely alluring boy named Kai, none of whom she’s sure she can trust. As secret after secret is revealed, Snow discovers that she is on the run from a royal lineage she’s destined to inherit, a father more powerful and ruthless than she could have imagined, and choices of the heart that could change the fate of everything . . . including Snow’s return to the world she once knew. This breathtaking first volume begins the story of how Snow becomes a villain, a queen, and ultimately a hero. A lush and addictive fantasy woven from threads of magic, romance, and adventure by a master storyteller. Danielle Paige raises the bar with Stealing Snow. –Kami Garcia, #1 New York Times bestselling coauthor of Beautiful Creatures & author of The Lovely Reckless A magical, exciting adventure full of secrets, thieves, and witches, with a unique, fresh twist on an old legend.–Jennifer L. Armentrout, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Wait for You Just as a blizzard turns a familiar landscape into something both dazzling and deadly, Stealing Snow transforms the ‘Snow Queen’ into an adventure that’s hauntingly beautiful and dangerously seductive. –Kass Morgan, New York Times bestselling author of The 100 Eerie, edgy and enchanting, Stealing Snow will transport you.–Amie Kaufman, New York Times bestselling coauthor of Illuminae One of my favorite fairy tale retellings! Danielle Paige is a master storyteller! –Melissa de la Cruz, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Isle of the Lost
