A misfit man finds a misfit dog. Ray, aged fifty-seven, 'too old for starting over, too young for giving up', and one eye, a vicious little bugger, smaller than expected, a good ratter. Both are accustomed to being alone, unloved, outcast - but they quickly find in each other a strange companionship of sorts.

A debut novel which explores a friendship between 2 misfits: a 57-year-old man called Ray and a dog called One Eye. 'An outstanding new Irish novelist.' Joseph O'Connor
