Publisher Comments

The #1 New York Times bestselling author presents a riveting novel of a canine Search and Rescue volunteer who fights danger and finds love in the Pacific Northwest wilderness.

To most people, Fiona Bristow seems to have an idyllic life—a quaint house on an island off Seattle’s coast, a thriving dog-training school and a challenging volunteer job performing Canine Search and Rescue. Not to mention her three intensely loyal Labs. But Fiona got to this point by surviving a nightmare.

Several years ago, Fiona was the only survivor of the Red Scarf Killer, who shot and killed Fiona’s cop fiancé and his K-9 partner.

On Orcas Island, Fiona has found the peace and solitude necessary to rebuild her life. But all that changes on the day Simon Doyle barrels up her drive, desperate for her help. He’s an intensely private wood artist and the reluctant owner of an out-of-control puppy named Jaws.

As Fiona embarks on training Jaws, and Simon begins to appreciate both dog and trainer, the past tears back into Fiona’s life. A copycat killer has emerged out of the shadows, a man whose bloodlust has been channeled by a master with one motive: to reclaim the woman who slipped out of his hands . . .

Review

"Strong romantic suspense . . . The serial killer subplot is not new, as the copycat has been done before, but Nora Roberts makes it seem fresh with her incredible writing skill as she uses the Search and Rescue canines as key elements in the exciting story line. Readers will enjoy Ms. Roberts' entertaining Puget Sound thriller."

-Midwest Book Review

"Roberts deftly packs the plot of her latest supremely satisfying novel with plenty of sexy romance, high-stakes suspense, clever dialogue and fascinating details about Search and Rescue dogs."

-Booklist

FromTheLeatherChair , October 22, 2014 (view all comments by FromTheLeatherChair)
Warning to victims of violence: the main character recounts violent acts to her and we witness new acts of violence with additional victims. I can only imagine that those who have been in a similar situation might want to be aware of this before reading. This was my first Nora Roberts novel and I got what I was expecting: hunky guy, ripping off of clothes, emotional tension. I was surprised at the foul language, but as stated, this was my first and maybe that's common in this genre. Follows the standard romance plot, through the lens of dog training and search and rescue, which added an interesting twist to the domestication of two individuals becoming a couple. Overall: fun romp- enjoy!
