Madelaine & Mocha - Vivian Munnoch

. .

Résumé :
Madelaine thought things could not possibly get worse when her parents dragged her out on a boring, no electronics and thank you very much for ruining my life, camping trip. Then Mocha, her American Cocker Spaniel and currently her only reason for getting through each day, is lost in the forest. Their attempts to find the dog are futile and Madelaine is devastated. A local boy, Geoffrey, joins Madelaine in her search, promising to not give up and showing her the beauty of the forest. Then, Madelaine's family wakes up to find her gone, vanished from the tent in the night wearing only her nightgown. Madelaine wakes in the dark, locked in a small room with no idea how she got there. The prisoner of a strange old man, Madelaine begs for escape, even in death. But she knew death once. Almost. It was not the blissful drifting off asleep she imagined it would be. It was agonizing and ugly. The old man's reason for kidnapping her is nothing she could have ever imagined. Madelaine keeps her hope up by wishing on a stone. Playing wishing games will not be enough to free her and escape her fate.
