Jagged Edges - Paperback

by Donna Ball (Author)

A gripping, emotionally rich mystery that blends small-town secrets, a heroic search-and-rescue dog and high-stakes suspense- where justice is hard-won and deeply human.

Dog trainer and search-and-rescue specialist Raine Stockton is trying to rebuild her life after a year she'd rather forget-one that included false arrest, public scrutiny, and more heartbreak than any small town should dish out. With her golden retriever partner Cisco by her side, Raine hopes the new year will finally bring peace.

It doesn't.

When a frightened woman disappears, a battered dog is found abandoned, and a powerful outsider begins buying up land around the county, Raine is drawn into a case that hits far too close to home. What starts as a routine act of compassion quickly exposes a chilling network of kidnapping, murder and corruption-one powerful enough to reach far beyond the mountains and silence anyone who gets too close.

As snowstorms close roads and tensions flare, Raine must rely on her instincts, her training, and Cisco's unerring nose to uncover the truth. But in a place where everyone knows your name, it's the things no one talks about that can get you killed.
