Blurb:
First in a gripping new mystery series about a retired MP and
her bomb-sniffing dog who become embroiled in an investigation in the beautiful
Vermont wilderness
It may be the Fourth of July weekend, but for retired soldiers Mercy Carr and Belgian Malinois Elvis, it’s just another walk in the remote Lye Brook Wilderness—until the former bomb-sniffing dog alerts to explosives and they find a squalling baby abandoned near a shallow grave filled with what appear to be human bones. U.S. Game Warden Troy Warner and his search-and rescue Newfoundland Susie Bear respond to Mercy’s 911 call, and the four must work together to track down a missing mother, solve a cold-case murder, and keep the citizens of Vermont safe on potentially the most incendiary Independence Day since the American Revolution.
A Borrowing of Bones is full of complex twists and real details about search-and-rescue dog training that Paula learned through the training of her own dog. With its canine sidekicks and rich, dramatic story, this debut will be a must-have for mystery fans.

My review:
A Borrowing
of Bones is a wonderful start to a new series of mysteries. Mercy and Elvis may
be down but they aren’t out by any stretch of the imagination. I loved watching
them solidify into a team. Mercy is smart and stronger than she knows. I really liked the terrific cast of supporting
characters and really look forward to visiting again.
