About this listen
NOTHING GOOD HAPPENS AFTER MIDNIGHT.
Ryder Creed’s priority is to keep his scent dogs safe. In the dark there are threats that are impossible to see or predict. Ever since his Marine K9 unit searched for IEDs in Afghanistan, he’s avoided nighttime searches. But when a boy goes missing in a remote area of the Florida Panhandle, Creed has to put aside his fears and navigate the risks his dogs will face after dark.
New York Times, USA Today and Amazon bestselling author, ALEX KAVA, is the recipient of two Nebraska Book Awards and a Florida Book Award. Over seven million copies of her novels have been sold in over thirty-five countries.
A KILLER IN WASHINGTON, D.C.
In the middle of the night, FBI Agent Maggie O’Dell is called to a crime scene in D.C. The M.O. matches another murder in the same area. Maggie and her team at Quantico believe this killer struck in other cities and is targeting homeless men.
After another attack leaves a colleague hanging on for life, Maggie grabs the only tip they have. She’s determined to track this killer herself as he flees D.C. and leads her hundreds of miles to a place she never expected.
ON A COLLISION COURSE.
When Sheriff Norwich enlists Ryder’s help to find a missing boy, it’s personal. The young boy is someone Ryder and his crew know. The search will lead them deep into the forest and after dark.
The paths of Ryder’s missing boy and Maggie’s killer are about to collide

Story
Ryder Creed and his dogs have been making national headlines. They've intercepted several major drug stashes being smuggled through Atlanta's airport. But their newfound celebrity has also garnered some unwanted attention. When Creed and one of his dogs are called in to search a commercial fishing vessel, they discover a secret compartment. But the Colombian cartel's latest shipment isn't drugs. This time, its cargo is human. To make matters worse, Creed helps one of the cartel's drug mules escape.

That he’s a survivor and a rescuer
I really love this series, how it’s written and read.
Being married to a Marine that’s also been to war, I can understand a bit of the man Creed is and being one that rescues and fosters, I love his passion for helping and training dogs.. that he never gives up on them.
I like the crime and who done it’s in each book and can’t wait for the need one.

Excellent Dog/Human Mystery Series…
…if you haven’t listened to this series and you love dogs you should give it a try!!
I was so happy to see this addition. This story has a couple of moving pieces. It begins with a family stopping to help someone by the side of the road. Then things go wrong. You don’t find out what exactly happened until almost the end of the book.
Jump ahead a few years and there’s a serial killer in Washington DC. He’s killing indigent people living on the streets. He hits an informant in the head with a hammer. He then shoots a local police woman. Maggie O’Dell of the FBI feels like she’s to blame. She got them both involved in her case.
Down in Florida her boyfriend Ryder Creed is searching with his dogs for a missing child. Creed has gotten involved with a homeless man and has been trying to help him. This new found friendship and Creed’s trustworthiness with prove to be important.
Joshua Mackey does a fantastic job narrating.
This book has my Very HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION!!
If you found this review helpful please indicate so.
Thank You.
