The Moloch did not come back to where she crouched in fear. Instead he moved over to the workbench.. He stood there, and then, as if he were familiar with the table, he picked up something, opened a drawer, and took somthin from it. Herculeah longed to stand up so she cold see, but she remembered the burning look of the Moloch's eyes in her linving room, the fear she had felt at this terrible smile. She stayed where she was. Her heart had started beating so loud, it pounded in her ears. Apparently, the Moloch had found what he needed. Herculeah heard him move towar the door. She heard him take a step outside.....then Herculeah froze. For she heard something that turned her blood cold. She heard the sound of hammering. The Moloch was nailing the door shut. And she was trapped inside.


My 11 year old read this through, she liked it but said some of the words were a little advanced for her
