Leanna Fennec - an exotic anthro fox sex slave - is rescued from a foundering slaver-ship, and dares to dream of having a normal life and family. But how can she hope to gain such when she has to deal with a gene-engineered body that has extremes so cruel, its bonds are more terrible than chains?

Leanna is introduced to a number of people and species, but none is more important or influential than Forestwalker, a chakat who takes special interest in Leanna's plight, and helps her find her way from abject slavery to true freedom. The journey is not without its problems for all, but along the way the fennec learns not only about the people who try to help her, but about herself.
