Tenderfoot

WAIT FOR THE BOXES TO OPEN WAIT FOR THE RACE TO BEGIN. WAIT AND YOUR GREYHOUND WILL CEASE TO BE THE DOG YOU KNOW AND BECOME AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT KIND OF ANIMAL. Brisbane 1970s. Andie's world is small but whole. Her mum is complicated but she adores her dad and the kennel of racing greyhounds that live under their house. Andie is a serious girl with plans: finish school then apprentice to her father until she can become a greyhound trainer with dogs of her very own. But real life rarely goes to plan and the world is bigger and more complicated than Andie could imagine. When she loses everything she cares about - her family her friends the dogs - it's up to Andie to reclaim her future. She will need all her wits to survive this new reality of secrets and half-truths addiction and crime.
