search and rescue dogs | Linda J. White

The book is out. Now what?

Jessica Cooper, private investigator, search-and-rescue volunteer, wife, mom, and dog handler investigates the ex-wife of a lawyer, Brett Hudgins. He thinks she’s abusing their children and he wants full custody. Jess thinks maybe Brett’s just controlling. But sure enough, something’s fishy in Brittany’s life. Her behavior in court reveals a deeply unstable personality. Soon Brett has what he wants, and Jess marks the case closed.

Just when she thinks the whole mess is behind her, Jess finds out Brett is trying to “save” his ex-wife. Then someone finds a tracker on Jess's car. Who could be tracking her? The stakes grow higher when Brett is found murdered. Early one morning, Jess is snatched away from her home, her family, her friends, and her dog.

Alone, standing on the banks of the Potomac River in the company of brutal men, Jess is about to find out if the faith she believes in the daytime will hold fast at night.

All My Bones Shook, the 8th book in the K-9 Search and Rescue Series, can be read as a standalone.
