In this final Book of "The Newfie-Bullet Trilogy" 'The Dogs of a Strange Town' are running beside the invisible train. A chill wind for dogs of a strange town; a chill wind for Hollywood Gargoyles. Fairy Tale, Fable, emerging Memoir & poem-movie about the adventures of a Gargoyle Poet who, frozen in the still time of stone, begins to stir - slowly - after centuries.
