Description: |
She doesn't know who she is, where she's from, or how she got here, but after walking down from the mountains of Santa Fe into the life of 14-year-old Mary Dark Hope, she tells about the man she calls Daddy. She knows he's looking for her as she moves toward an inevitable and harrowing confrontation with the man who abducted her. 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
