Tiffany dances with the Wintersmith - the elemental personification of winter - and he falls in love with her. Now winter won't end, the Wintersmith is trying to become human for her sake, and Tiffany must find a way to put things right before the Chalk is buried under snow forever. Granny Weatherwax watches from a distance, and the Nac Mac Feegle are as unhelpful as ever. A story about responsibility, growing up, and the gap between flattery and love.
