Young Adult Science Fiction
Seventeen-year-old Nano Miller was born and raised on Dog
Island: home to Mechanical Tail, the company behind
lifelike replacements for “man’s best friend.” The island
is also home to the last living dogs, all but extinct.
When a global genetic experiment went awry and canines
stopped wagging their tails, mass hysteria ensued and the
species was systematically euthanized. Here, they are
studied in a natural and feral state. Nano’s life has become a cycle of annual heartbreak.
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 another heartbreak:
the loss of her brother, Billy, who recently vanished
without a trace. But nothing can prepare her for a
discovery that upends everything she’s taken for granted:
it’s a living puppy that miraculously wags its tail.
There is no way she’s letting this dog go.
