Description

<p>When Jessica Bryant pesters her wealthy parents to allow her to have a dog as a pet, the answer is a resounding &quot;No&quot;; but they soon come to regret their decision when thier home is broken into one evening whilst they are out and their daughter kidnapped and held for ransom. The kidnappers, in the form of four seedy and incompetent characters wearing Disneyland-type masks, take her hostage and keep her incarcerated in a place from which there appears to be no escape. However, they reckon without the resourcefulness of our heroine, and the courage of a wonderful stray dog who comes to her aid and whom she names 'Murdo'. And so begins an exciting and humurous accounting of the couples' adventures together as they consistently foil and outwit the abductors whilst on the run together.<br /> This is a lovely story of the friendship between a girl and a dog, bringing out themes of responsibility, camaraderie, redemption, salvation and self-sacrifice. It includes some wonderful dialogue sequences as Jessica teaches her new four-legged friend how to communicate with her, with additional delightful conversations between the animals when a rabbit and a sparrow join forces with them in an effort to outwit the kidnappers and restore Jessica safely back to her parents' home. </p>

Story Behind The Book

The inspiration for this book was created by a couple who experienced several meaningful coincidences in their new relationship. To uncover if they were soul mates or to discover if they ever met in another life they turned to hypnosis. The initial past life regression sessions and those that followed were more successful than either of them could have imagined. The last chapter of the book is entitled &quot;The story behind the story&quot; which chronicles the research and hypnosis sessions while explaining to the reader why the book was written.

I loved it. It was poignant and moving. It dealt with the spiritual aspect of reincarnation along with telling a good story. The characters were true to life and it was well written. I also learned a few things about the 1930s. I would highly recommend this book. <font color="#0000ff">J.
