Killer Secrets
Book Three in the National Forest K-9 Series
A small town’s deadly past is exposed in the newest installment of the suspenseful National Forest K-9 series by Kathleen Donnelly.
Until an avalanche ripped down a mountainside, exposing a serial killer’s dumping grounds, Antler Valley, Colorado was a quiet town. Now Forest Service officer Maya Thompson and her beautiful K-9, Juniper, must catch the murderer before they become the next targets.
With the neighboring town’s new overconfident sheriff deterring the entire investigation, a murderer on the loose and heartthrob deputy Josh Colton racing through her mind, Maya is at a crossroads. Josh is ready to go all in, but Maya has one foot out the door. As she lets her guard down, she needs to accept that she’s falling deeply in love with him, no matter how risky it may be.
When evidence from the Antler Valley victims links the murders to deaths in other ski towns, secrets long buried are unearthed. Maya and Juniper must run toward an answer, though finding it might lead them directly into a fatal trap…
Full Praise
“Kathleen Donnelly has penned a novel that contains everything I like: an authentic love story, wild country, a compelling heroine, an original murder, a diabolical killer (maybe two), and a canine companion who more than once has a chance to display his remarkable skills. After reading the last National Forest K-9 book I came to appreciate Maya Thompson’s knack for getting into (and out of) trouble—especially with the help of her intelligent companion Juniper. And I was happy to see continued assistance of all kinds from her roommate/lover Josh… Killer Secrets does not disappoint. I’m looking forward to seeing what happens next.”
