A child disappeared. A mystery ailment. And a family secret finally uncovered… Greta and Matthias are worried. Their daughter Holly is sick and no-one knows what is wrong. The doctor cannot help, and Holly gets paler and sleepier with every passing day. Then every parent’s worst nightmare: Holly disappears. The only clue Greta can find is an odd little doll made of tree-roots. They are totally at a loss, and terrified for their daughter. But just when everything is at its blackest, hope comes in the shape of a hare. Can it really be the same that helped Greta during the winter of the Snowmaiden? Who is the owner of the tree root doll? And can they find Holly before it is too late? (Short story - approx 13k words)
