Book description
One evening as 12-year-old Mika walks to her friend Aimee's house, she
hears a cat yowl and goes to rescue it in front of an abandoned house.
She brings the cat home and decides to call her Angel. With Angel safe
at Mika's home, strange things start to happen. Someone appears to be
watching the house, and a dark presence seems to stalk her in the woods.
One day after school Mika arrives home to find that Angel has
disappeared. Mika is broken-hearted and worried for the gentle little
cat. When Mika and Aimee go out to find Angel, they find her trying to
scratch her way out of the house where Mika found her. They free her,
but not before Angel's mysterious owner sees them. After a narrow
escape, Mika thinks the problem is solved. But then one of her brothers
goes missing. Does Mika have the courage to save both her brother and
Angel? Or will the darkly gifted, cruel woman claim them all? “A good
