Romantic thriller set in the PNW (shout out to Orcas Island and the WA state ferry system). Dog trainer, wood worker, and a serial killer cross paths. Everyone is competent and good at what they do.
The serial killer is off page for the first half, but gets a more intense as the story ratchets up. Just past my personal comfort level. But the search and rescue and dog training is fascinating! And it’s Nora Roberts, so there’s a happy ever after (the killer gets what he deserves and no dogs are harmed).
