But the explosion didn't kill Nate--it was two gunshots to the heart. <p/>The investigation leads them to the home of rancher Doyle Redman, whose daughter is Nate's widow, and the object of one of their suspect's affection. But before they can make an arrest, they receive an emergency call from a man who's been shot in the mountains. Mattie and Robo rush to the scene, only to be confronted by the ominous growl of a wild predator. <p/>As new players emerge on the scene, Mattie begins to understand the true danger that's enveloping Timber Creek. They journey into the cold, misty mountains to track the animal--but discover something even more deadly in <i>Tracking Game</i>, the fifth installment in Margaret Mizushima's Timber Creek K-9 mysteries.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Praise for <i>Tracking Game: </i><br>Finalist, Willa Literary Award, Contemporary Fiction <br></b><br><b>Mizushima has a gift</b> when it comes to crafting immersive settings...She also makes <b>both the human and animal characters feel authentic</b>. <br>--<i>Associated Press</i> <p/>"Mizushima's take on small-town policing feels <b>authentic and series fans will be thrilled to see Cole and Mattie getting closer</b>."<br><i><b>--</b>Publishers Weekly<br></i><br>Whether one likes stories about conflict or relationships, <b>there's something for everybody in Mizushima's fine novel</b>. <br>--<i>Booklist</i> <p/><b>Part family drama, part animal-infused mystery</b>, part ongoing exploration of the troubled heroine's psyche. <br>--<i>Kirkus Reviews</i> <p/><b>Compelling and twisty</b>...
