_______________

Feodora and her mother live in the snowbound woods of Russia, in a house full of food and fireplaces. Ten minutes away, in a ruined chapel, lives a pack of wolves. Feodora's mother is a wolf wilder, and Feo is a wolf wilder in training. A wolf wilder is the opposite of an animal tamer: it is a person who teaches tamed animals to fend for themselves, and to fight and to run, and to be wary of humans.
When the murderous hostility of the Russian Army threatens her very existence, Feo is left with no option but to go on the run. What follows is a story of revolution and adventure, about standing up for the things you love and fighting back. And, of course, wolves.

She knew the wilding stages: she had recited them before bed since she was four. ‘First,’ she whispered to herself, ‘ascertain what world the wolf has come from.’ Some of the wolves who came to them were manic and snappish, and took very little time to re-wild. Some were timid and jumpy and barely able to walk.
‘Sit,’ she said to the wolf. Tenderfoot sat, carefully, her four feet arranged as neat as a laid-out table.
‘Down. Lie down.’ Tenderfoot lay down in the snow. She did not take her eyes off Feo.
‘Paw?’ Feo asked.
The wolf sat up, licked her paw with exquisite courtesy and held it out to Feo. Feo did not take it.
‘Beg?’
