DEFENDING THE INNOCENT TARGET (A Canine Defense novel)
by New York Times bestselling author Carol J. Post
When Isaac Cooper and his K-9 partner investigate suspicious activity at the house next door, they discover Brandi Feldman, the frightened new owner who has been attacked. The home she inherited hides dark secrets, and there are traps around every corner. As threats against her escalate, it’s clear someone wants her gone—at any cost. Under Isaac’s vigilant protection, Brandi must uncover the truth about her deadly inheritance. But can they outmaneuver a killer determined to make Brandi’s next move her last?

MISSING IN NEW MEXICO
by Kathleen Tailer
Sheriff Joaquin Fuentes stumbles upon a desert car crash in New Mexico, rescuing Luann St. John from the smoking wreckage—but this was no accident. Someone sabotaged her vehicle to stop her from uncovering the truth about a twenty-year-old plane crash tied to her father’s disappearance and diamond smuggling accusations. As danger closes in, Joaquin is determined to protect Luann, even as they’re hunted at every turn. With secrets unraveling and a killer lurking, the truth could clear her father’s name—or drag Joaquin and Luann into a deadly grave.

FORCED TO RUN
by Mallory King

On her wedding day, Ellie Carter witnesses her fiancé commit murder—and is framed for the crime herself. Fleeing into the Texas wilderness, she turns to the one man who can protect her and help clear her name: her ex, Detective Luke Marshall. With armed gunmen chasing her and no one to trust, Ellie and Luke must track down evidence to take down the ruthless criminals. But her fiancé’s powerful allies are everywhere, and time is running out. Can they survive long enough to expose the truth, or will the killer make them disappear for good?
