The Helter Skelters (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Helter Skelters

Pester, Helter's fox terrier, sat in the middle of the turnpike looking expectantly down the road with a gaze that did not waver, and though one ear drooped toward Hippy, the other was cocked straight up in the air to catch any sound that might float back from the tense young figures of four other children hiding along the way.

Hippy perched on the low gate-post with her crutch still tucked under her arm, for she wanted to be ready to hop on the instant's notice. As for Silva Luna Bassbinder, she was everywhere at once.
