To know heart-wrenching loss means youve known heart-blossoming love. Remy and Baux, two Australian shepherd puppies, find themselves abandoned in a cemetery. Because theyre not full-blooded, the human owners have tossed them aside like yesterdays trash. Theyre not only separated too early from their mother, but they also lose their litter mates. They know theyre scared and hungry, but what they dont know is that a winters storm like none other heads their way. Theyre all alone. Or are they? One day, after theyve watched a funeral during which they see emotion like theyve never seen before, a coyote steps into their midst. He seems to be knowledgeable, and certainly doesnt mind telling stories, some going as far back as to ancient Native American beliefs about coyotes. Do these stories have any meaning to Remy and Baux, or are they just tall tales? Most important, is the coyote friend or foe? Meanwhile, miles away, as the storm barrels in, a man stays alone in his darkened, shadow-filled house. Hes lost all his dogs, but hes lost something even more significant -- hes lost his wife, the love of his life. Hes getting lost in the shadows. Grief pulls and tugs at him, threatening to sweep him away from the world of the living. Will these forces come together and if they do, what will happen? From the imaginative mind of author David Weiskircher, Two Dogs And An Old Soul is an extraordinary adventure into the emotion-charged world of love and loss that will intrigue readers of all ages.
