Story summaries

• Nop's Trials
• By Donald McCaig
• Nop and his master worked well together. "Nop, Nop. Way to me," Lewis Burkholder would call, sending the Border collie racing off to herd the scattered flock of sheep. 'Nop. Come by." "Stand." "That'll do, Nop." Man and dog--they were as one mind, one heart, bound by love and trust. Nop was a prize dog, a champion, but it was more than his skill and his beauty that Lewis cared about. It was Nop's courage, his spirit, his devotion. That's why it hurt so much when Nop was stolen. As Nop is carried off to a life of fear and danger, Lewis sets out in desperate pursuit, determined to find him, vowing that if he succeeds, nothing will ever again seperate hm from his special friend. "Nop's Trials held me in fascinated suspense to the last page. It is poignant, authentic and beautiful."--James Herriot


• The Sound of Wings
• By Spencer Dunmore
• The captain's seat of the 1011 jet would be the pinnacle of Adam Beale's ambitious career. And after fifteen years with the airline, he had the four gold stripes almost within his grasp. Until one dark night, on a routine flight from New York to London, when he saw the monoplane.... It materialized suddenly. A tiny blur that became a terrifying form. High wing, fixed undercarriage, spinning propeller. Only one thing to do: grab the controls, serve to avoid a collision and... It was gone. Vanished. As quickly as it had appeared. Nobody else on the jet had seen it. Or had understood Adam's desperate manoeuvre. That was how the nightmare began. Then, after a takeoff from Toronto, Adam saw the old-fashioned aircraft again. And this time strange, unidentifiable sounds crackled in his earphones. Was he imagining things? Was he losing his mind? Or was someone playing a frightening game in the skies?


• Jennie About to Be
• By Elisabeth Ogilvie
• Thirty golden guineas in a velvet drawstring bag. That is Jennie Hawthorne's legacy from her father, to be spent only for some great and urgent need. She intends to use it to escape her closed-in life in London for the freedom of her beloved North Country. But on the very day she plans to flee, fate intervenes: fate in the resplendent form of Nigel Gilchrist, a handsome captain of the Royal Horse Guards. And when Nigel whisks Jennie away to his family's estate in the Scottish Highlands, it suddenly seems as if her future is going to be brighter than she ever dared imagine. Still, she thinks, it is comforting to know she has the bag of guineas. Just in case...


• The Cop and the Kid
• By William Fox with Noel Hynd
• On a quiet night in September, 1981, New York City Police Officer Bill Fox received a chilling call over his Emergency radio. "Possible jumper. One zero one the Bowery," crackled the dispatcher. "Can you take it?" Seconds later the burly cop and his partner were racing to the scene. What awaited Bill would prove a challenge like no other. Poised on the edge of a crumbling hotel rooftop was a lonely, frightened seventeen-year-old boy. "Nobody cares!" he was crying. On the street below, a reckless crowd taunted," Jump! Jump!" Michael had only a few dollars in his pocket. His parents were shadowy figures, lost in his past. Now just one man could give him a second chance--for hope, love, and life itself. How Bill fox opened his heart to Michael, and then his home, is an inspiring tale of courage and compassion. A rugged cop and a runaway boy--determined to make it as a family!
