The story of a young girl's quest to save the Parsifal family from the evil Queen Ida. This very traditional tale is set in England will appeal to young readers aged 8-12 and also to grownups who grew up in the 1950's or wished they did. According to Maryam Montegue, "The great thing about Jane in Winter is that it doesn't dumb down the writing for children. Instead it assumes that children are smart, curious creatures who deserve literary prose. That said, there is no skimping on the fantasy element that makes the story so appealing to young readers. What child is not mesmerized by a mystery complete with an evil queen ? "
