My Thoughts:
This was a pretty good book. Whitney is a K9 rookie officer. She and her partner were supposed to be moving on to a bigger precinct but loyalty and orders have kept her in small town Desert Valley. I really liked her and how determined she was to be the best at everything. She wants a well rounded life but she is also obsessed by the murders that have been occurring, one in particular.
David was good friends with Whitney's brother and came all the way around the world to find her after making a promise to her brother as he died. I loved the loyalty and determination he showed by following through on this promise. Maybe her brother was sending him specifically for his sister? There are several mysteries woven together and I liked how the story flowed. There were parts of this book that I really, really enjoyed. For instance the very start of it, I loved how Whitney and David met. But I just didn't feel a connection with the characters at all. Still I will read more in the series just so I can find out some answers!
It was a 3/5 for me. It solves some of the questions but leaves some still open.
