About this listen

From highly acclaimed author Alice Henderson comes the eagerly anticipated and electrifying fourth book in the Alex Carter series, in which the wildlife biologist encounters anti-immigrant vigilantes, rugged terrain, and threatening intruders in search of a sleek, powerful, and furtive animal—the jaguar.

When wildlife biologist Alex Carter is tasked with locating jaguars on a vast desert preserve in New Mexico, she is ecstatic. While jaguars once roamed throughout the Southwest, they are now endangered, with only a handful remaining, and Alex hopes some of the sleek and elusive creatures have found their way to the protected sanctuary.

Meanwhile, an archaeological team is excavating the gravesite of a sixteenth-century Spanish conquistador on a neighboring piece of land. Curious about the dig, Alex meets the team and, while learning about their discoveries, she encounters a dangerous group of anti-immigrant vigilantes roaming the area, threatening the archaeology team, demanding they leave. And when the militants learn of Alex’s mission, they become bent on stopping her. Because jaguars are federally endangered, the vigilantes worry that if Alex finds them, concessions will be made so that wildlife can cross the border wall. And they want no one crossing it…

And then there are the strange holes that keep appearing on the preserve—Who is digging them, and what are they looking for?

As tensions mount, Alex soon finds herself in a fight for her life against those who would prevent her from restoring jaguars to their historical habitat.

This series is one of my all time favorites, and is the 4th book of the series. It highlights our battle to save endangered animals while providing thrilling entertainment. The author gives us plenty of accurate information on the endangered animal(s) featured in the book and ways we all can help protect them. Alice Henderson is a fantastic writer and Eva Kaminsky is the perfect narrator. The twists and turns in this, and all the other books in this series, will keep you on the edge of your seat. The character development is so good that I feel I know these people personally. I wait all year for the next book to be released. I hope this series continues!

suspenseful, informational, and inspirational

I love this whole series! I really enjoy hearing about each animal that Alex is studying. There is plenty of suspense and I really couldn’t stop listening. If this book were stand-alone, I would have given it a 5 but I feel that each book in the series follows the exact same formula. Alex goes to study an animal and there is a crazy group trying to kill her. I hope the next one changes it up a bit. Overall, great listen!

Excellent adventure!

Each book in the Alex Carter series tops the last and this one is no different. The second half was non-stop suspense; I couldn’t stop listening!
