Inside, she could die.

Everyone says Mr. and Mrs. Shevvington are lovely people. But Christina knows otherwise. She sees what they are doing: First, they chose Anya. Then, Christina - but Christina was too strong for them...so now it's Dolly, sweet, trusting Dolly.

But Christina knows Dolly isn't outside. She's inside. Lost somewhere in the Shevvingtons' house. And that's much worse.
