DESCRIPTION:
"Please, sir, may I have some more?" according to Cathy G. Cole. This is quite a departure from Spencer Quinn's Chet and Bernie mystery series. There is no gentle humor. There is no dog's point of view.

Arriving in the rain-soaked small town in Washington State that Marci had called home, she makes a troubling discovery: Marci's eight-year-old daughter has vanished. LeAnne Hogan went to Afghanistan as a rising star in the military and came back a much lesser person, mentally and physically.
