Pax and Peter have been inseparable ever since Peter rescued the fox as a kit. But one day, the unimaginable happens: Peter's dad enlists in the military and makes him return Pax to the wild. At his grandfather's house three hundred miles away from home, Peter knows he isn't where he should be - with Pax. He strikes out on his own despite the encroaching war, spurred by love, loyalty, and grief, to be reunited with his fox. 8+ Destined to become a classic.
