A stray dog escapes from a hell of torture and clandestine fighting, his body covered in mange and his bones fractured, but with his will still intact. On the run, he finds Diana, a woman broken inside, haunted by ghosts dressed in human skin. Together they face a world rotten to the core: clinics where compassion is sold, streets where misery drips from the ceilings, and corners where hope hides to avoid being devoured. He, just a discarded animal. She, just another survivor. But amidst so much trash, a sacred bond is born: that of two wounded souls who save each other.This is a novel about compassion on the margins, animal and human resilience in the face of a system that doesn't forgive weakness, and the unlikely tenderness that springs up even in the worst dumps of the soul. With an intense, heartbreaking, and deeply poetic narrative voice, this story gives voice to those who are unheard. Because even a mangy dog and an invisible woman deserve a second chance... even if the whole world is against it.
