Rescues, Rogues & Renegade

Katie Wilk has begun her second month of the school year with her math and science students when a series of shocking events rock their small towna teenage beauty queen is found dead in a state park, Katies neighbors three-year-old daughter is abducted, and Maverick, her dog, has a search-and-rescue certification exercise which turns into a real emergency. Doctor Pete Erickson, the man Katie was starting to have feelings for, seems curiously out of touch with her these days, but she and the new veterinarian in town may turn out to have quite a lot in common.
Can Katie put together the pieces and learn if the crimes are connected, or will she and those dear to her be put in even greater danger?
