Poppy Parker's life has been turned upside down after her grandma - and guardian - ends up in the hospital. But Poppy - dog lover, artist extraordinaire and fixer of problems - is working on a plan to spring Grandma Beth so Poppy can get out of the orphanage and things can go back to normal. But her plan falls to pieces when she witnesses a horrible crime and suddenly normal slips even further out of her reach.
To keep Poppy safe, the budget-strapped police devise an unusual 'witness protection program', where Poppy will stay with Detective Brannigan's mum. It's weird at first but soon Poppy settles in; even making sort-of friends with a misfit girl named Lizzie and definitely making best friends with Gunner - a beautiful German shepherd with an uncertain future. But it's still not home. So while she and Lizzie navigate a rocky friendship and plot to save Gunner, Poppy also tries to figure out a new plan to rescue Grandma Beth and get home - all while avoiding a dangerous criminal who might be looking for her. But what if things can never go back to the way they were?
