The thrilling odyssey that takes the two girls into the murky world of illegal dogfights, hunting, and wild-animal profiteers culminates in a dramatic confrontation, but it is the brilliantly realized characters rather than the plot that capture the reader's imagination and keep the pages turning. Another tour de force for Grimes, and a cause for celebration for her many fans. --Jane Adams

Book Description First edition, 1999. Hardback. 276pp. Dust jacket. The girl does not know who she is, where she's from, how she got there. She wakes one morning in a bed-and-breakfast alone. She is told by the owner she came in 'dead asleep' with her father. Except the man is not her father. She takes her backpack, bedroll and the wad of money she finds in his jacket and heads for the mountains, seeing in their bleak and towering landscape some kind of safety. Months later, she walks down from the mountains and into the life of fourteen-year-old Mary Dark Hope. Bound by lack of family, their murky pasts, their affinity for animals, they set out to find the man who abducted her. A story that moves swiftly towards a harrowing confrontation. Book in near fine condition. Dust jacket very good. Unclipped. A little light edge wear and some very slight fading to spine. Slight discolouration to internal edges of dust jacket. Book.
