ROAM: A Novel with Music

By Alan Lazar

Roam is the survival story of Nelson, a Poodle/Beagle puppy. Nelson is a breeder’s “mistake” who goes from the loving home of the woman who purchased him to the cruel, dangerous world beyond his safe fence. This story is both heart-warming and heart-breaking as it shows not only the special bond shared between dogs and humans but also the atrocities placed upon dogs by humans. This is a book you will have a hard time putting down.
