For fans of Michael Connelly and Karin Slaughter comes a heart-stopping thriller that explores the depths of redemption and impossible choices.
When K-9 Officer Eden Mercer enrolls in an elite search and rescue training course in remote Juniper Wells, Arizona, she has a hidden agenda. Her estranged father has finally offered a chance to reunite with her dying mother—if Eden agrees to meet his cult's representatives alone at the Utah border. But when a former military K-9 handler is murdered before he can expose dangerous secrets, Eden and her loyal shepherd Shadow find themselves entangled in a deadly conspiracy.
As more disturbing evidence emerges, Eden discovers that beneath the town's rustic facade lies a web of deception and violence. With time running out to meet her father's deadline, she's forced to confront impossible choices: pursue justice for the murdered veteran, or seize perhaps her only chance to save her family from the cult that stole her childhood.
The closer she gets to the truth, the more she realizes both paths could be leading her straight into a trap.
Can Eden and Shadow uncover who's behind the murder before they become the next targets? Or will her desperate bid to reunite with her family cost her everything?
Dive into "Twisted Pursuit" and lose yourself in a pulse-pounding tale of loyalty, redemption, and the price of confronting the past.

The story starts with a billionaire relishing a sip of his eye-wateringly expensive Scotch whisky and outdoing his severe father, The plot checks in with this man and his coterie from time-to time, but have confidence the storylines will cross. Eden and her canine, Shadow the German Shepherd, are translocated from rural Oregon to desert Arizona for a specialised training camp. She is out of her jurisdiction and the only law enforcer as all the others are part of the local search and rescue team. One of the members of this team dies on their first exercise and the renowned trainer wants to call off the rest of the course, but is pressed to continue by the majority of participants. Eden's offers of help in investigating this death are rebuffed by the local police officer, Running Bear. However, Eden and Shadow bring her round and she is an ally when new information emerges. The remaining members of the team and the instructor are all suspects in what is determined to be a murder. Each exercise puts Eden and Shadow in physical danger, not just from the conditions, but because any member of the team or instructor could be the murderer. She is motivated to stay because the other reason for taking this course is to be able to see her mother and siblings still caught in the cult she escaped as a teenager.
There is a dramatic climax and the dogs are important as well as relevant to the story. I found the resolutions very satisfying and just. Thrilling, entertaining and interesting read.
The narrator does a good voice acting performance with appropriate emotions and tone for each distinct character.

The narration is ok but could use more inflection or a slightly varied voice for different characters as it was sometimes hard to tell who was talking with a single narrator.
I'm enjoying watching Eden grow and change and become the cop she is meant to be.

What I didnt understand from a character place was why the sister wasnt involved but sure it was a plot device for the second sub plot and it was needed to work out that way.

It's nice that Hannah Somerville narrates this whole series too. For me it helps with character consistency and she really suits Eden's character in my opinion.
