From the author of the highly acclaimed" Blackwater" comes a
beautiful fable exploring the bond between a man and a dog In the
heart of the tranquil countryside, a young puppy leaves his home to
eagerly follow his mother and master. But away from the safe haven
of the farm, the puppy soon becomes lost and is left to struggle
for survival in the wild. Suddenly, he must find food and a safe
place to sleep, and outwit his competitor, the fox. The puppy
becomes wild himself, trusting no human and furiously fighting the
hunting dogs that enter his domain. But one man is intrigued by the
now-unruly dog and very slowly begins to gain his trust. Each day
he visits the dog, bringing food and awakening memories of his
distant domestic past. The lost relationship between man and dog is
rebuilt in this sensitive and intelligent story about the true
nature of trust and friendship.
