For
fans
of
CJ
Box
and
Michael
Koryta,
a
new
thriller
set
in
remote
Washington
State,
where
a
widowed
ex-Marine
anda
misanthropic
ex-convictgrudgingly
team
up
to
save
the
only
thing
they
have
in
common--the
rescue
dog
who
changed
both
their
lives.
Widowed while deployed overseas, former US Marine Jess Winslow reenters civilian life with little more than a falling-down house, a medical discharge for PTSD, and a dog--specifically Lucy, a black and white pitbull mix trained to help Jess cope with the crippling memories of her time in Afghanistan. But Jess also inherits a heap of trouble, of her late husband Ty's making. A corrupt deputy sheriff comes looking for a mysterious package -- and leaves with Lucy, threatening to have the dog destroyed unless Jess delivers the goods allegedly stolen by her husband before his untimely death.
The
next
person
to
appear
on
her
doorstep
is
a
newly
released
ex-convict.
Surprisingly,
he's
there
to
help.
The
only
good
thing
to
come
of
Mason
Burke's
fifteen
years
in
prison
was
the
dog
he
trained
there
for
a
service-animal
program--Lucy.
She
helped
keep
him
sane;
now
he'll
stop
at
nothing
to
keep
her
safe.
Forced into an uneasy alliance in order to save Lucy, Jess and Mason must learn to trust each other. But finding Ty's package is only the start of their battle. To avoid becoming collateral damage in someone else's private war, they'll have to fight back--and conquer their own doubts and fears.
