In the near future, the few surviving dogs are studied in a sanctuary, Dog Island, where seventeen-year-old Nano Miller tests robotic dogs, seeks her missing brother, and experiences her first romance. |

When a global genetic experiment went awry and canines stopped wagging their tails, mass hysteria ensued and the species was systematically euthanized. Nano Miller was born and raised on Dog Island,where dogs are studied in a natural and feral state. It is also home to Mechanical Tail, the company behind lifelike replacements for 'man’s best friend.' Every spring Mechanical Tail gives her the latest robot dog model to test, only to tear it from her arms a year later. This year is complicated by the loss of her brother, Billy, who vanished without a trace. Then Nano makes a living puppy that miraculously wags its tail. There is no way she's letting this dog go.... |
