    About this ebook

    Exciting new adventure from an author who is going from strength to strength. Finn had seen those eyes before. they were golden yellow, like the colour of the moon hanging low in the sky. And they were full of pain. When Finn comes across a car accident, little does he realise his life is about to change forever. the huge, injured animal he discovers is no dog - but a wolf, escaped from the circus. Finn is bewitched. Instinctively, he knows he must save the wolf, Lupa, and prevent her return to the cruel circus. Where to hide the wolf, and how to feed her, are just the beginning of Finn's problems. For the sinister circus clown, Cackles, is hot on their trail and will stop at nothing to get Lupa back. But Cackles doesn't even like wolves, so why is he so determined to get her? In a race against time to save Lupa, Finn gets help from unlikely quarters. But will it be enough? Age: 9 - 12

The characters are lively and entertaining. Another great read from a wonderful author.

      Finn sees a car hit an enormous dog and sets off to find the animal that has run off. What he discovers is a wolf not a dog – an escapee from a circus that Finn recently attended. Finn becomes determined to save the wolf and make sure she isn’t returned to the circus but how will be able to afford the vet’s bills and the food . . . and what will his mother say? And then the creepy clown from the circus turns up . . . Susan Brooker has written another totally engaging animal book that covers all the bases – an animal story, an adventure story and a mystery with a likeable boy, a realistic mother, a quirky grandmother and a scary (but not too scary) villain. This book would suit readers aged 10 and up.
