Above reviews from Amazon
In the creation of Jack Wolfe the author has born a rival to Lee Child and Jack Reacher, a thriller that will keep the reader turning the pages. The real beauty of this story is the bond between man and dog, the trust and devotion they have keeps them both alive in their adventure to find a missing person whose family are under threat.
Injustice, intrigue and emotions run high throughout the storyline and make for a riveting read taking us on a roller coaster of a ride. I love the way the writer takes Jake to the boundary of law enforcement in order to protect and stop bad things happening, taking him deeper into a place he was not expecting to go.
The in-depth knowledge and research of the special dog handling unit shines through the pages and gives the reader an excellent insight into how many hours, patience and effort it takes for them to form a formidable team.
Excellent writing prose, descriptive scenes and characters brought to life run through the imaginative part of your brain painting a vivid image of what is happening and you start to act out the next part of the story or so you think!
This is the second book in the series of Jack Wolfe but can be read as a stand alone, if you love thriller, mystery and the clever way that the unsung animals help solve mysteries and catch the bad guys this is the book for you. Watch out for this author and Jack Wolfe I promise you will not be disappointed.
