What is lurking in the dark forests of Russia?

The Icelandic national soccer team is getting ready for another game – this time going up against Argentina and Lionel Messi himself at the World Cup in Moscow – and once again, team mascot Henri has been invited to watch them play. But the journey to Moscow is fraught with danger, and Henri and his friend Mia must repeatedly fight for their lives.

For nearly three decades, Thorgrimur Thrainsson has been one of Iceland’s most popular authors for children and young adults. His previous books about Henri, Henri and the Heroes and Henri Hits the Mark, were huge hits, and this latest installment in the series is a thrilling tale that readers will hardly be able to put down.
