The new girl in town meets a mysterious old-fashioned girl who cant seem to find her way home.The girl didnt say anything. Her face held no expression.Ariadne shivered. It was cool in the shade, and her hair was still wet.Hello, Ariadne said. No answer. Um--I was just taking a walk. Is this your property? Still nothing. She took a step toward the girl and stumbled on a fallen branch. She caught her balance and looked back at the tree, but no one was there. The girl had vanished.Its bad enough that Ariadnes family just moved to a tiny boring town in the middle of nowhere. But worst of all is that shes so far away from her best friend. The kids in Dobbin seem nice enough, but none of them really understands how lost and unhappy Ariadne feels.None, that is, but May Butler.
