There is a village hidden away there where he says they can face off against Capricorn to recover Mo.
Dustfinger returns to convince Meggie and Elinor that they should travel to the Italian foothills to rescue Mo. Because Elinor has kept the book in her custody, Capricorn’s evil plans are delayed. Unfortunately for Capricorn, the attempt is only partially successful because the henchmen were unable to find the object Capricorn so desires-a copy of a book called Inkheart. Dustfinger betrays them, arranging for Capricorn’s black-jacket henchmen to kidnap Mo. When they reach the estate, Meggie is thrilled to find a plethora of books. Mo refuses to tell her, even as they are fleeing from Capricorn. Capricorn desires an object Mo is hiding-and also to benefit from some talent that he has, which Meggie knows nothing about. On the way there, Dustfinger and Mo explain that they are running from Capricorn, an evil man. This mysterious stranger prompts Mo to flee their small farm and go to Meggie’s great-aunt Elinor’s estate. One night, they are visited by Dustfinger. As the book opens, Meggie Folchart lives with her father, Mo, a specialist who repairs books for a living. Cornelia Funke’s Inkheart is a novel of magical realism-the story takes place in the real world, but magic figures into the plot and character development.
