Every dog has his day. I say, ‘Don’t lose your heart, Rube.’ My brother answers me. He says, ‘I’m not tryin’ to lose it, Cam. I’m tryin’ to find it.’

The Wolfe brothers know how to fight—they’ve been fighting all their lives. Now there’s more at stake than just winning.

A wry, perceptive story, sequel to The Underdog, from best-selling author Markus Zusak.
