This harrowing tale of a girl's struggle to save her beloved pet, in a town that's slating all dogs for something awful, borrows from the horrors of history. As Blundertown's sweeping anti-canine laws tighten, Raelyn Devine feels alone in protecting Penelope, whom she has never lived without: Her brother's in juvie jail, her best friend is estranged, and her parents insist that laws must be obeyed.
Her selfless courage in the face of grave, systematic hatred is an inspiration in urgent times.
