About

LiNCOLN PARKbegan writing books as a way to privately express her feelings aboutprevalent social issues; especially in regard to urban,African-American, feminine perspectives. However -- with the subjectsand popularity of her titles now crossing over publishing color-lines,LiNCOLN PARK's fecund fables and prolific parables of modern episodesare heralded by a colossal and mounting faction of fervent, mainstreamliterati.

Called a 'gifted writer' by the prestigious, RAWSISTAZ Book Reviewers; as well as a special combination of -- Erma Bombeck's CRACK WIT, Tim Russert's CRACK RESEARCH, Merriam Webster's CRACK DEFINITIONS and a generally, CRACKED MIND-- LiNCOLN PARK's extraordinary literary style is controversial, cultand cutting-edge. As she frequently administers a more severe anddisquieting pen than her contemporary literary counterparts, 4465 PReSShas taken unique initiative and placed the standard seal of PARENTALADVISORY on the front and back covers of all LiNCOLN PARK-penned books.

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>
