Description
Maddie Finn lives with her mother above a converted stable in the grounds of a big house owned by the gloomy Harold Delamore. It's their cosy burrow against the world, and Maddie's favourite task is to walk Sal, Mr Delamore's rare, prize-winning dog.
But one day, Maddie and her mother are given two months' notice by the trouble-making Delia Delamore, home from her boarding school—or has she been expelled?
When Maddie takes Sal for a walk the next morning, Delia comes too... into a dark alley, where a gang of kidnappers is waiting. But who do they want?
Maddie Finn is a tense, exciting story of a difficult friendship by the best-selling author of The Bamboo Flute and The Divine Wind.
