Publisher's summary

Mercy and Elvis are back in The Hiding Place, the most enthralling entry yet in USA Today best-selling Paula Munier's award-winning Mercy Carr mystery series.

When the man who killed her grandfather breaks out of prison and comes after her grandmother, Mercy must unearth the long-buried scandals that threaten to tear her family apart. And she may have to do it without her beloved canine partner Elvis, if his former handler has his way....

Some people take their secrets with them to the grave. Others leave them behind on their deathbeds, riddles for the survivors to solve.

When her late grandfather’s dying deputy calls Mercy to his side, she and Elvis inherit the cold case that haunted him - and may have killed him. But finding Beth Kilgore 20 years after she disappeared is more than a lost cause. It’s a Pandora’s box releasing a rain of evil on the very people Mercy and Elvis hold most dear.

The timing couldn’t be worse when the man who murdered her grandfather escapes from prison and a fellow Army vet turns up claiming that Elvis is his dog, not hers. With her grandmother Patience gone missing and Elvis’s future uncertain, Mercy faces the prospect of losing her most treasured allies, the only ones she believes truly love and understand her.

She needs help, and that means forgiving Vermont Game Warden Troy Warner long enough to enlist his aid. With time running out for Patience, Mercy and Elvis must team up with Troy and his search-and-rescue dog Susie Bear to unravel the secrets of the past and save her grandmother - before it’s too late.

Once again, Paula Munier crafts a terrific mystery thriller filled with intrigue, action, resilient characters, the mountains of Vermont, and two amazing dogs.

A Macmillan Audio production from Minotaur Books

"I love books where the story and the characters grow out of the place that they're set, and that couldn't be more true of The Hiding Place, which delivers a satisfying, twisty plot, an entertaining ensemble of locals, and, of course, a pair of intelligent and heroic dogs." (Ann Cleeves, New York Times best-selling author of The Darkest Evening)

Another great mystery

I have enjoyed all of the stories in the series as the narrator does such a great job bringing the characters to life. There were several threads in this book but all got happily resolved in the end.

Twists & turns

So many twists and turns in the story. Cameos by people from previous stories and many new people and pets. All of the emotions at the end that brought a tear to my eye.

I love this series!

The latest Mercy Carr book, The Hiding Place by Paula Munier, is a fabulous combination of mystery, suspense and romance! The Audible performance by Kathleen McInerney, added to the author's words with just the right amount of emphasis, tone changes and voice characterizations. I was enthralled from beginning to end of this novel. I can hardly wait for more to come in the future!

One of the Best!

Action packed adventures, mysterious events, spooky rides through narrow windy roads in a white out , bombs, bones and out of sight plot twists, three dog nights , and a hint of romance, too. Truly not a moment of boredom between the covers of this book.

Uncomplicated and easy

Always enjoy books in this series. Engaging, but not overly so. Great for commuting. Love the characters and their development. The descriptions within help the reader imagine being right there.
