About this listen
Adam March is a self-made “Master of the Universe”. He has it all: the beautiful wife, the high-powered job, the glittering circle of friends. But there is a price to be paid for all these trappings, and the pressure is mounting—until the day Adam makes a fatal mistake. His assistant leaves him a message with three words: your sister called. What no one knows is that Adam’s sister has been missing for decades...that she represents the excruciatingly painful past he has left behind...and that her absence has secretly tormented him all these years. When his assistant brushes off his request for an explanation in favor of her more pressing personal call, Adam loses it. And all hell breaks loose.
Adam is escorted from the building. He loses his job. He loses his wife. He loses the life he’s worked so hard to achieve. He doesn’t believe it is possible to sink any lower when he is assigned to work in a soup kitchen as a form of community service.
But unbeknownst to Adam, this is where his life will intersect with Chance. Chance is a mixed breed Pit Bull. He’s been born and raised to fight and seldom leaves the dirty basement where he is kept between fights. But Chance is not a victim or a monster. It is Chance’s unique spirit that helps him escape and puts him in the path of Adam. What transpires is the story of one man, one dog, and how they save each other—in ways they never could have expected.

Not Just Another Shagg Dog Tale
I loved this book. At first I thought I may struggle to listen to the nasal American accent of the narrator who reads Adams parts but soon the story takes over and you don't notice it. I like the way the author Susan Wilson manages to be graphic when telling the story from the pit bull Chances' point of veiw without being too descriptive with the blood and gore. As a listener you are drawn in and your imagination does the rest impressive writing.If you liked Marley and Me or The Art of Racing in the Rain I think you will like this.Don't be put off about the fact the dogs tale is one of dog fighting, this is really a story about two characters finding they can change for the better in each others company.

Dog on first person? Doesn't work for me.
This book would have been better off as a children's book. I just couldn't get into the character of the dog being written in first person.
