The neighbours all complain about the foxes hanging around the flat where Cassie lives, close to the River Thames, but Cassie thinks they’re beautiful. Her favourite is a small fox with a white tail-tip, who she names Frost. One night she catches sight of him out in the snow, looking cold & thin, & decides to sneak him some food. But Frost seems to want her to follow him… As he leads Cassie towards the river she feels the world change around her & finds herself in the back in the seventeenth century – at the time of the Frost Fair on the frozen Thames. At first she is thrilled by the sights & sounds of the famous fair, then she glimpses a fox with a white tail-tip. It appears that Frost wants her to follow him again. Can she find a way to return the fox to his countryside home?
