FBI K-9s by Sara Driscoll
FBI handler Meg Jennings and her black Lab Hawk are part of the FBI’s elite Human Scent Evidence Team, part of the Forensic Canine Unit. Their job―find the missing, lost, escaped, or dead. The team as a whole can be deployed at a moment’s notice around the nation to search for missing children, escaped convicts, or to find the victims of natural disaster.
FBI handler Meg
Jennings and her K-9 partner, Hawk, are drawn into a case that involves a
fortune in uncut gems, and an enemy whose power and ruthlessness know
no bounds...
Diamonds are no one’s best friend when the jewels
in question are smuggled conflict gems. Meg Jennings and her Labrador,
Hawk, have undertaken many search-and-rescue missions, but this case has
an unusual twist. A Philadelphia syndicate is importing diamonds from
war-torn African nations and selling them with fake certificates to
Stateside dealers. Agent Finn Pierce of the Organized Crime Program is
embedded with the syndicate, but being caught with a wire or tracking
device would mean instant execution. If Meg, her partner Brian Foster,
and their dogs can track Pierce to a deal location, they can break the
smuggling chain while maintaining Pierce’s cover.
With the
syndicate monitoring every move, it’s a risky operation with more
players than Meg and Brian first assumed—on both sides of the law. And
when one of their own gets caught in the line of fire, the team embarks
on a desperate rescue mission, knowing that mere seconds are all that
separate life and death.
FBI handler Meg
Jennings and her search-and-rescue K-9 partner are heading south where
it’s hunting season. But this time the prey is human.
One
arrow through the heart could be a tragic hunting accident. A second
one, within days, looks more like a crime. That’s when Meg Jennings and
Brian Foster of the FBI’s Forensic Canine Unit head to Georgia to
investigate. With their dogs Hawk and Lacey, Meg and Brian are enlisted
to follow the scent of a killer. At first, nothing seems to connect the
two victims–a county commissioner and State Patrol officer. But the
blood sport around the southern town of Blue Ridge is just beginning.
As
the body count rises, the compound bow killer becomes even more
elusive, appearing and vanishing like a ghost. However, with each new
slaying Meg is beginning to suspect the grim design that’s escalating in
the shadows. At its heart, a tragic event that reaches back nearly two
centuries in Georgia’s history is now turning Blue Ridge into a hunting
ground. But as Meg gets closer to solving the puzzle, the closer she is
to stepping into the crosshairs of an elusive murderer with deadly aim,
and motives as deep and dark as the woods.
Special Agent Meg Jennings and her search-and-rescue dog are on the trail of a killer hiding where others fear to tread…
For Meg Jennings and her K-9 companion, Hawk, exploring the ruins of a
deserted building is an exciting way to sharpen their skills without the
life-or-death stakes they face as part of the FBI’s Human Scent
Evidence Team. But deep in the echoing rooms of an abandoned asylum,
Hawk finds the body of an elderly woman. The victim couldn’t have made
her way into the derelict building on her own. Before forty-eight hours
pass, Meg learns of more cases of elders found dead in neglected urban
structures.
There’s not enough evidence to link the
deaths—yet. But Meg scents a pattern, and when she gets word of another
senior gone missing, she and Hawk don’t hesitate. Meg is sure a murderer
is hunting the elderly, and she can prove it if she can just find a
connection. It will take the expert coordination of her whole team,
along with help from Clay McCord and Todd Webb, to uncover the means,
let alone a motive. And to stop someone who has operated in the dark for
so long, Meg will need to risk more than she has to give.
FBI Special
Agent Meg Jennings and her search-and-rescue K-9 companion confront the
fury of nature—and the more dangerous nature of man . . .
In the wake of a devastating hurricane, Special Agent Meg Jennings and
her Labrador, Hawk—invaluable members of the FBI’s Human Scent Evidence
Team—have been deployed to Virginia Beach. Amid debris and the buried
cries for help, the most alarming discovery is yet to come—a teenage
girl hiding in the Great Dismal Swamp.
Her
name is Emma—a disheveled runaway lost to the sordid underbelly of a
Virginia sex-trafficking ring. Its leader has disappeared in the
chaos—along with other victims. Meg joins forces with Special Agent
Walter Van Cleave and uncovers a vast network of abuse rooted in some of
the most influential powers in Virginia. Now as Meg’s investigation
digs deeper, she’s making some very dangerous enemies. And one by one,
they’re coming out of the storm to stop her.
Special Agent Meg
Jennings and her trusted search-and-rescue Labrador, Hawk, must race
against the clock before a diabolical killer strikes again . . .
Somewhere in the Washington, D.C. area, a woman lies helpless in a box.
Barely breathing. Buried alive. In Quantico, the FBI receives a coded
message from the woman’s abductor. He wants to play a game: decipher the
clues, save the girl. The FBI’s top cryptanalysts crack the code and
Special Agent Meg Jennings and her K-9 partner, Hawk, scramble to the
scene of the crime—too late. But the killer’s game is far from over . . .
Another message, another victim. The deadly pattern is repeated—again
and again. As the body count mounts, Meg decides to break protocol and
bring in her brilliant sister, Cara, a genius at word games, to decipher
the kidnapper’s twisted clues. Meg knows she’s risking her career to do
it, but she’s determined not to let one more person die under her and
Hawk’s watch. If the plan fails, it could bite them in the end. And if
it leads to the killer, it could bury them forever.
In the first of a
thrilling new series, FBI Special Agent Meg Jennings and Hawk, her loyal
search-and-rescue Labrador, must race against time as they zero in on
one of the deadliest killers in the country . . .
Meg and Hawk are part of the FBI’s elite K-9 unit. Hawk can sniff out
bodies anywhere—living or dead. When a bomb rips apart a government
building in Washington D.C., it takes all of the team’s extensive
search-and-rescue training to locate and save the workers and visitors
buried beneath the rubble.
But even as the duo are
hailed as heroes, a bomber remains at large, striking terror in a
widening spiral of unpredictability. As more bombs are detonated and the
body count escalates, Meg and Hawk are assigned to a task force
dedicated to stopping the unseen killer. It will come down to a battle
of wits and survival skills between Meg, Hawk, and the bomber they’re
tracking to rescue a nation from the brink of chaos.
