Reviews so far:

"Great first novel. Unexpected twists kept the tension going. I was expecting a more blood-and-guts story but in fact, the subject matter worked surprisingly well."

"I was on edge the entire time. Great read! I didn't want it to end at all wishing there was at least 1 more chapter."

"Well written thriller with protagonists I could immediately like. Well written, quick read. I loved the book, in spite of subject matter. I have dogs, and wow I could imagine! Recommended."
