BOOK REVIEW - TRACKING STOLEN SECRETS BY LAURA SCOTT

 



 Alaska State Trooper Helena Maddox, along with local cop Everett Brand, are hunting for her twin sister Zoe (albeit for different reasons). Her K-9 partner Luna is a help for that goal; Christine, Helena's infant niece she didn't know about before she was left at Everett's cabin, and having their location compromised repeatedly are not.

This is the fourth part of an eight part series. If you are familiar with these multi-author series, you'll know that this is a stand-alone story with references to other plotlines that are sprinkled through the series. If you're not, you can enjoy this story without reading the others.

The plot, as you'd expect, keeps you on the edge of your seat. The characters are easy to care about, especially Everett who has reasons for discomfort in the situation he's in.

When I saw the cover for this book, I was surprised. I'm used to seeing the K-9 hero on the cover of these stories, and am used to seeing German Shepherds, Labs, and Beagles. But was that really a Norwegian Elkhound in this story? Yes, it was. A pleasant surprise.

I enjoyed this novel, and am enjoying working my way through the series.
