Publisher's Summary

A stand-alone short story in the multi-award-winning Troubadours quartet series.

The wolves are coming! At midnight on Christmas Eve, while the blizzard blasts snow through every crack in the castle walls, Nici the shepherd's dog stands guard in the sheepfold. Beside him as usual are his pack and the flock they protect, but this night is not usual at all. A small boy braves the snowy night, seeking the protection of his great friend while he is banned from his parents' quarters in the castle.

Nici recalls other times and other dangers, his trials and failures, the reasons why he ran away with a young girl, now the little boy's mother. He would still give his life in a heartbeat for Lady Estela. And yet, on this snowy night, he cannot help her. 

While he waits and comforts Estela's son, he tells his own puppies the story of a dog's life.
