"This
un-put-down-able
story
has
everything--a
well-imagined
post-apocalyptic
world,
great
characters,
incredible
suspense,
and,
of
course,
the
fierce
love
of
some
very
good
dogs."--Kirkus
Reviews(starred)
When
a
beloved
family
dog
is
stolen,
her
owner
sets
out
on
a
life-changing
journey
through
the
ruins
of
our
world
to
bring
her
back
in
this
fiercely
compelling
tale
of
survival,
courage,
and
hope.
Perfect
for
readers
ofStation
ElevenandThe
Girl
With
All
the
Gifts.
My
name's
Griz.
My
childhood
wasn't
like
yours.
I've
never
had
friends,
and
in
my
whole
life
I've
not
met
enough
people
to
play
a
game
of
football.
My
parents
told
me
how
crowded
the
world
used
to
be,
but
we
were
never
lonely
on
our
remote
island.
We
had
each
other,
and
our
dogs.
Then
the
thief
came.
There
may
be
no
law
left
except
what
you
make
of
it.
But
if
you
steal
my
dog,
you
can
at
least
expect
me
to
come
after
you.
Because
if
we
aren't
loyal
to
the
things
we
love,
what's
the
point?
