In this quick excerpt, Anne Hopkins has been out to the garden -- dragon-chasing. George Mather and his daughter, Rowena, hear her return to the house. Together, they hurry downstairs.

The kitchen doors swung back and forth on their hinges, then
burst open again. Anne Hopkins emerged, her dress muddied, the lace edging torn
from one sleeve, and a ruffled flounce dangling loose at the bottom of her
skirt. Twigs and pine needles clung to her untamed spikes of hair.
Her blue eyes glowed as if possessed by some unseen force. “Got him.” She beamed a triumphant smile and beckoned toward
the kitchen. “Come, see,” she urged.
