Meg Jennings, Brian Foster, and their search dogs Hawk and Lacey are FBI agents, best friends, and partners whose lives depend on each other.
This time they’re tracking a killer in Georgia. The
first death looked like an accident, but the second was obviously deliberate.
Both victims were shot through the heart from a great distance with an arrow,
specially designed. There doesn’t seem to be a connection between the two, but
after a third death, the motive starts to take shape.

As the attacks continue and suspects alibi out, the
team begins to believe the motive dates back a couple of hundred years to
impact the present. Just how far will the killer go?
This is book five in the series, one of my favorites. Driscoll gives readers insight into the workings of a tracker team, the dangers of the job, the rewards as well as the disappointments. There’s a cost in terms of personal life, too. Meg loves Todd Webb, a former EMT, now a fire fighter. Brian is married to Ryan. Without the understanding of the bond between the teams and their dogs, the awareness of danger and the willingness to face it to solve a case, their personal relationships would never last.
This story is a fast-paced page turner. Meg and Hawk never take unnecessary risks, but sometimes there’s no choice but to keep going no matter what. As always, I can’t wait for the next book, to catch up with old friends, to talk crime and dogs.
