A Dog Called Dave

di Michael White (Autore)

M.K.W. Publishing, 2026

Dave arrives in the middle of the night. No collar. No owner. No chip. No explanation. Jack takes him in because that is what you do with a dog who appears on your doorstep looking as though he has always belonged there. Jack is not looking for company. He has only just moved to the isolated village of Thistledene Parva to be alone, to be quiet, and to recover from something he does not yet have the words for. Dave has other ideas. Slowly, and without Jack quite noticing how it happens, the dog begins to change things. Walks turn into chance conversations. Conversations turn into friendships. A friendly dog, it turns out, is an excellent way of starting both. Doors open. Lives overlap. Jack finds himself drawn into village life, into laughter, arguments, shared histories, and the possibility of belonging again. Somewhere along the way, he begins to heal. But Thistledene Parva is not as peaceful as it first appears. A powerful local landowner, driven by greed and old entitlement, is quietly unpicking the village from the inside. As Jack becomes more rooted, he finds himself unwilling to stand by and watch everything unravel. And Dave? There is something about him that does not quite add up. He appears where he is needed. He nudges Jack in the right direction, often without Jack realising it. It is possible that Jack will never discover where Dave came from. He may never know why he arrived in the middle of the night with a tail that never quite stops moving, and a look that simply says, 'feed me'. What he does know is this. Nothing in Thistledene Parva will ever be the same again. A Dog Called Dave is a warm, quietly magical novel about grief, community, and the unexpected ways love finds its way back to us. It is a story about standing up for what matters, about second chances, and about one very good dog whose impact is immeasurable.
