This is a marvelous book about friendship, love, grief, healing and the magical bond between a woman (formerly a cat woman) and a dog. Set in New York, this novel relates the story of a woman who unexpectedly loses her friend and mentor and finds herself burdened with the unwanted dog he has left behind. Her own suffering is intensified by the mute suffering of the Great Dane, traumatized by the inexplicable loss of his master.
