***Shortlisted for The Times/Chicken House Children's Fiction Competition 2019*** Book 1 of 2 in Winterhaven Chronicles. By day, Sondrine Renfrew works at Cimmerian’s Curio Emporium, her aunt’s apothecary and antique shop in London, 1875. By night, she weaves fire, water, and air into both inanimate objects and living creatures. When a hooded stranger offers Sondrine a snow globe in trade for medicinal herbs, she accepts, enchanted by the castle, forest, and sea encapsulated under the glass. Her enchantment fades, however, when her deceitful aunt betroths her to one of London’s wealthiest men—a complete stranger. Determined to escape the marriage, Sondrine trades her corset for trousers and decides to run away. With one foot out the door, she falls down a veritable rabbit hole into Winterhaven, the haunting world inside the snow globe. Sondrine soon discovers her arrival in Winterhaven is no accident. There, she meets Shán, a man who broods more than the darkened sky above. Turns out Shán is not to be trusted. Not only is he the man who sold Sondrine the snow globe, he is a bounty hunter employed by the king. The beginnings of a sovereign war have been set in motion and an Immortal queen, one who uses fire as a weapon, is set on destroying Winterhaven. Because of her Elemental gifts, only Sondrine has the means to stop the queen. If Sondrine refuses the king’s request, he will behead her. If she rises to the challenge of killing the Immortal queen, her death is just as imminent. After all, an Immortal queen cannot be killed. Or can she?

The year is 3000. The future is sleek, advanced—and deeply disconnected.

In Picture This, 15-year-old Jim longs for something no one around him seems to care about: the past. Trapped in a world of high-tech perfection, where even emotions feel automated and friendships are virtual at best, Jim sits cramped in a space suit aboard his classroom spaceship, wishing he could rewind time to when life was messy, human, and real.

Luckily, he’s not alone. With his loyal best friend Mel and the rare comfort of his parents close by, Jim sets out on a quiet mission: to revive the forgotten spirit of the year 2020—a time when a global plague forced people to slow down, reconnect, and question the very technology that now dominates life. As he challenges the future’s flawless façade, Jim risks everything to remind people of what truly matters.

Ideal for readers aged 11–16 who love speculative fiction, social commentary, and heartfelt friendships, Picture This is a powerful coming-of-age sci-fi series that asks big questions: What happens when we lose touch with our humanity? Can one teen spark a movement in a world that’s forgotten the value of imperfection?

The past holds the truth. The future hides the cost. And Jim? He’s ready to take the risk.
