Jack: The Tale of Frost (A Science Fiction Adventure)

Some legends are buried. Others claw their way back.

Sura didn't believe in fairy tales. That changed the moment she stepped through the gates of Frost Plantation.

Sixteen and grieving, Sura accepts a job once held by her late mother. The estate is nothing like she remembers. Towers vanish from satellite view. Machines hum behind the walls. The staff speak in riddles. And at the center of it all is Mr. Frost, a reclusive, brilliant genius with eyes like icicles and a voice that chills the air. Some say he's not entirely human. Some say he invented Christmas.

He has been waiting. Waiting for the truth Sura would uncover.

In the heart of the tower, a secret two hundred years in the making has escaped from Mr. Frost's basement lab. A secret born of snow, memory, and myth. A secret named Jack. One never meant to wake.

As Sura digs deeper, she finds herself caught in a story woven from elven science, forgotten legends, and the strange magic that once powered the North Pole. She begins to understand why her mother stayed silent and why garlands and lights still hang in Frost Plantation long after the season ends.

Christmas is about to end.

Because Jack is back.

Jack: The Tale of Frost is a story of memory, identity, and the girl who discovers that the fairy tale is real... and it has been waiting for her all along.

Christmas was never just a holiday. It was a warning.
