At twelve years old, Ruby Calvino is the youngest competitor in the Tooth & Claw championship.

Desperate to prove her innocence, she teams up with a young wolf accused of helping her commit the crime. But figuring out who killed Alarick certainly won’t be easy while on the run from cops and another vicious wolf. Luckily, Ruby’s Tooth & Claw training just might come in handy!
