A rescue dog leads to questions in Montana

Set in Helena, the mystery begins when a dog found wandering in the Crazy Mountains arrives at RogerDog Rescue with suspicious wounds. The discovery connects Kelly Boyd, a former high school math teacher now working at the shelter, and its founder, Betty Mills, with Cici Vargas, an ex-Army veteran investigating the disappearance of Brianna Norwood, a fellow veteran. As the three pursue the link between the dog and its missing owner, police warnings and a figure intent on protecting buried secrets complicate their inquiry. The shelter setting and animal-rescue work anchor a mystery that brings together a small investigative team and a search for answers around a disappearance.

Book overview

Helena, Montana. Kelly Boyd, long time high school math teacher has hung up her chalkboard and joined RogerDog Rescue working alongside the gruff founder, Betty Mills and quickly became second in command at the shelter. Rescue is full of frequent surprises, and at first it seems like business as usual when hikers bring in a dog found wandering in the Crazy Mountains. Normal goes out the window, though, when the dog is discovered to be sporting suspicious wounds. How was he hurt? Why was he in the Crazies? What does this mean for his missing owner? Kelly and Betty team up to investigate alongside ex-Army Cici Vargas who sees the dog as a major clue in the disappearance of her fellow veteran, Brianna Norwood. Not everyone wants them to dig up answers, though. The police warn them off, while a shadowy character would go to any lengths to keep his secrets buried. Can the trio stay out of jail and safe from harm long enough to solve the mystery?
