‘It broke my heart and then splinted it back together again... Magnificent.’ Hannah Gold, bestselling author of The Last Bear  ‘A dog’s eye perspective that’s so vivid you can almost taste the earthworms.’ FT, YA Book of the Year ‘This visceral story of heartbreak and survival...has the memorable feel of a classic.’ Guardian, Best children’s and YA books of 2022 Chernobyl, 1986. Natasha’s world is coming to an end. Forced to evacuate her home in the middle of the night, she must leave her puppy behind and has no idea if she’ll ever return. Some time later, growing up in the shadow of the ruined nuclear power plant, pups Misha and Bratan have to learn how to live in the wild—and fast. Creatures with sharp teeth, claws, and yellow eyes lurk in the overgrown woods. And they’re watching the brothers’ every move… But will the dogs survive without humans? And can humans live without them?

"Every so often a story comes along that makes you its prey, takes you in its jaws, shakes you — and you have no option but to go limp and submit. Such is the case with the new young adult novel from the Carnegie-winning author Anthony McGowan, who has written a classic best described as a post-nuclear The Hundred and One Dalmatians with a little of The Incredible Journey thrown in. Yet it has a howl all of its own... This wonderful novel deserves to receive the literary equivalent of the starlight barking to ensure it’s read by all."
