This is one of the most entertaining books I’ve had the pleasure to read recently. One of the reasons is that the search and rescue dogs play a huge role.

The book is set in the Boundary Waters area in northern Minnesota Durand a training and competition for SAR teams -dogs and handlers from all over the country. The focus dog is named Hawk wit his handler Meg. But in the midst of the weekend a murder happens and Meg and Hawk get thrust in the middle of the investigation.

Extremely hard to but down as the action is mostly nonstop. Loved the book and the story.
