Synopsis

Join a thrilling journey into the heart of New York City in 2048, where the skyline glows with the promise of a fair society unlike anything the world has ever seen. Dogs are citizens, revealing a world where their wisdom, skills, and even magical powers have become an important part of our daily life.

In this wonderful place, not everyone welcomes our new equality.

Amidst the glittering skyscrapers and bustling streets, a sinister plot unfolds. Hope, a twelve-year-old girl with the amazing ability to communicate telepathically with dogs, discovers a plot that threatens to shatter the delicate balance of this dog-inclusive existence.

Her best friend is Keely, an American Bulldog, whose loyalty and magical powers know no bounds.

Together, they stumble upon a secret laboratory that's determined to steal the unique genetic code that grants dogs their magical powers. The diabolical plan is to give these extraordinary gifts solely to humans, leaving our special dogs powerless.

As the clock ticks down and the city's fate hangs in the balance, Hope and Keely must navigate a world of danger and deception. Racing against time, they embark on a pulse-pounding adventure, uncovering secrets that will test their friendship, resilience, and the very meaning of living in this fantastical future.

Join Hope, Keely, and their friends on an electrifying quest where the bond between a girl and her dog transcends the ordinary, and our fate rests in their paws.

Prepare for a tale filled with excitement, adventure, and the unbreakable spirit of friendship in a world where the extraordinary is just a bark away. Will Hope and Keely stop the sinister plot to rob dogs of their magical abilities, or will the mad scientist cause society to fall into chaos?

I took acting classes and performed on stage, TV, and film.After several years of acting, I channeled my creative energy into writing.HOPE FOR THE HOUNDS is my debut novel.
