NOTES
Moments before twelve-year-old Ruby wins Tooth and Claw, the undefeated wolf, Alarick, drops dead, and suddenly Ruby becomes the main suspect, and teams up with her friend Fillan to uncover the real killer
Ages 10-14
At twelve years old, Ruby Calvino is the youngest human player in the Tooth & Claw championships. It's her fast legs and even faster mind that leaves her as the last player left during the final game, and she's ready to claim victory. But when the undefeated Alarick-- the wolf player hunting her-- is finally upon her, he...drops dead? With poison found in Ruby's bag, all fingers (and paws!) point to her. Desperate to prove her innocence, she teams up with a young wolf accused of helping her commit the crime. But figuring out who killed Alarick certainly won't be easy while on the run from cops and another vicious wolf. Luckily, Ruby's Tooth & Claw training just might come in handy!
