The Winter Door

Rage’s home life and school life are challenging to say the least, with her mother still unwell, her uncle not wanting her, and the school bully becoming increasingly nasty. And she’s been having strange dreams. What do they mean? Is she in danger? It is just her world or the mysterious Valley as well?


First published in 2002, The Winter Door is the second book in a planned trilogy following [Billy Thunder and the] Night Gate. The third title has long remained unwritten. Will the inclusion of the first two books in the Untapped Collection inspire Carmody to complete the trilogy at last?
