* WHAT READERS ARE SAYING:
"My daughter NEVER reads and couldn't put this book down. She signed up for the newsletter so she can be notified when the next book comes out!!" - Amazon reviewer
"The author has a great voice with a wonderful sense of humour." - Indie Abode Book Reviews
"We are loving this book. My 10 year old son who has a short attention span cannot get enough. I love how suspenseful it is." - Amazon reviewer
"I've read a few books marketed for middle-grades or younger this year and I have to say that this is hands down the best suited for those ages. It has a great plot, some truly well-rounded characters (with more depth than what I find in most adult novels these days), a fantastic storyline and a climax that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Not only was this book highly entertaining but there are some great messages in it. I could easily see this transitioning to the big screen and that's not something I say very often." - Cory Balboni for LitChick Hit list
"If you want to get your middle grade reader interested in picking up books, then this is a great place to start. " - Net Galley reviewer
“This one is a page-turner. The canine characters are fantastic” – Alison Campbell, Nor Any Drop to Read.com
"I've been a teacher for many years and I think this story is spot-on. It deals with important issues, but they are an integral part of the plot, and there is no 'preaching'." - Amazon reviewer
