Chernobyl, 1986. Without humans, how will dogs survive?

As humans fled the nuclear disaster, they were forced to leave their pets behind. Without people, nature began to return to the woods surrounding the power plant - lynx and bear and wolves. But the overgrown forest is no place for dogs. Can Zoya, and her pups Misha and Luka, learn to survive in the deadlands? And will Zoya ever find her way home to her beloved owner?

Praise for Anthony McGowan:

McGowan’s prose is beautiful in its brevity and devastating in its emotional impact The Bookseller

The Carnegie medal winner McGowan is superb at stories about children who do not have all the advantages. The Sunday Times
