Primero fue Reuben, lobo feroz con sierras en lugar de dientes; luego Archer, rubio, bello y letal; y finalmente llegó Frosty, una bola afable y rencorosa. Son los tres perros salvajes y leales que llegan a casa de los Zusak para poner patas arriba a la familia y, al mismo tiempo, completarla. Lo que sigue resulta inevitable: peleas callejeras, rifirrafes en el parque, daños corporales y psicológicos, tragedia y amor encarnizados, pero, sobre todo, la configuración de una constelación de afectos en torno a la necesidad humana (y animal) de pertenecer a un clan.

Ed Kennedy leva uma vida medíocre, sem arroubos. Trabalha, joga cartas com cúmplices do tédio, apaixona-se por uma amiga que dorme com todos os vizinhos do subúrbio e divide apartamento com um cão velho. O pai alcoólatra morreu há pouco; a mãe parece desprezá-lo. Certo dia, ele impede um assalto a banco e é celebrizado pela mídia. O ato heróico tem conseqüência. Logo depois, Ed recebe enigmáticas cartas de baralho pelo correio: uma seqüência de ases de ouros, paus, espadas, copas, cada qual contendo uma série de endereços ou charadas a serem decifradas.

Cameron Wolfe é o caçula de três irmãos, e o mais quieto da família. Não é nada parecido com Steve, o irmão mais velho e astro do futebol, nem com Rube, o do meio, cheio de charme e coragem e que a cada semana está com uma garota nova. Cameron daria tudo para se aproximar de uma garota daquelas, para amá-la e tratá-la bem, e gosta especialmente da mais recente namorada de Rube, Octavia, com suas ideias brilhantes e olhos verde-mar. Cameron e Rube sempre foram leais um com o outro, mas isso é colocado à prova quando Cam se apaixona por Octavia.

Sentado na cozinha de casa diante de uma máquina de escrever antiga, ele precisa nos contar sobre um dos seus quatro irmãos, Clay. Tudo aconteceu com ele. Todos mudaram por causa dele.
