“Parents pay tuition for an education—not to have a smelly old dog sleeping by the front entrance.”
Those were the first words spoken by the school’s new principal.
For twelve long years, Ethan had avoided returning to the school where his father—a beloved principal—made the ultimate sacrifice. When a devastating fire broke out, his father rushed back into the flames to save the last students trapped inside.
He never made it home.
After their mother’s passing, Ethan’s older brother confessed he could no longer carry the burden of keeping their family’s school alive. Reluctantly, Ethan returned to the place filled with memories, grief, and unanswered questions.
But what he discovered waiting at the school’s front entrance was something no one expected…
An old dog.
A dog everyone wanted removed.
A dog that had been guarding a secret for years.
And the truth it would uncover was about to change everything.
