My Review:

I love the books that Dana Mentink writes for Love Inspired Suspense.  She always has the perfect blend of interesting characters and an intriguing storyline with just the right touch of suspense.  She does a great job with the pacing of the plot and allowing her characters to grow in their walk of faith in a way that blends naturally with what’s happening in the story.  This is the first book of a new series, “Security Hounds Investigations”, and if this is an example of the rest of the series, it’s going to be a good one.

In this book, the suspense begins immediately and continues all throughout the book.  The characters of Emery and Roman have to learn to work together to solve the mystery of who is trying to kill Emery.  Roman had deeply hurt Emery in the past, and they both have to learn to trust each other again.  The faith thread in the book is about forgiving others, but also forgiving ourselves.  But best of all, I absolutely loved Wally the bloodhound.  Wally has a personality all his own and I had to laugh at some of his antics.  However, Wally could be called on to be a hero when needed, and I loved that part of the story. As you read this book, you’ll enjoy getting to know Wally!

I voluntarily received a copy of this book from Celebrate Lit.  All opinions are my own.

More from Dana

Bloodhounds everywhere! I was thrilled to be offered a contract to write a WHOLE SIX BOOK SERIES with these amazing creatures and their private eye humans! Bloodhounds have been described as “noses with dog’s attached.” Isn’t that quaint? I hope you will enjoy reading about Wally. He’s a young dog who did not receive the proper training and he’s a tad…well…naughty. Good thing he’s got a handler who’s equally as stubborn. It’s a battle of wills between Wally and Roman and there’s plenty of room for fun along with the suspense. Bloodhounds, take it away!
