When Cruella De Vil is released from prison, the dogs - and dog-lovers - of London are worried. After all, just three years ago, this evil woman stole ninety-nine Dalmatian puppies and was going to use them to make herself a spotted fur coat! Cruella's lawyer claims that Cruella has been cured of her cruel ways, that she now loves puppies and hates fur. Is it possible? Are the puppies of London safe? Or has the judge who let Cruella go free just made a terrible mistake?
