Description:

A homeless dog, singed and ash-covered after a devastating fire, earns the nickname "Wombat." She's a "destiny dog"—an inner voice convinces her someone special is meant to be her person. Wombat refuses to leave her bench near the makeshift community center, despite everyone's efforts to move her. Surrounded by rescued animals including an elderly fruit bat and young owl, she waits faithfully. But for whom? And did they survive the flames?
