Being a 'nobody', when she finds out about a mouse infestation in her new owners' home, she runs away. Lost in the city, the border collie struggles to adapt to her new life among the dirty strays. In the stinky alleys, her special friend taught her survival skills. She feels miserable for not being able to help her friend in return until she accidentally finds out she is a big help to others as well. She eventually finds out an unbelievable secret that is a huge surprise to her. Multiple characters from the previous books in the series have incredible interactions with Ruby.
