Heartwarming and powerful, a young girl and ex-police
dog bond over their grief and work together to solve crime.
"Cleverly plotted, pacy and packed full of heart,
this is a real feel-good read... a standout cosy crime story."
- The School Librarian
Haley has withdrawn from the world and retreated into her shell
ever since her police officer dad was killed in the line of duty
a year ago. Hero is a young police dog who has been retired early
- his handler was injured in the line of duty and he cannot seem
to bond with anyone else.
But when Haley and Hero meet, two lost souls find one
another.
As they settle into their new lives, they quickly learn that old
habits die hard when Hero is instantly onto a clue when
the Whittaker Diamond is stolen. And Haley is
furious when DI Doyle, a former rival of her dad's, is assigned
the case and immediately accuses ex-offender Dylan - an employee
of her mum's catering business which offers second chances and rehabilitation.
Can Hero and Haley crack the case?
Filled with heartfelt emotion and thrilling twists, this is a
brilliant cosy crime story with a gorgeous bond between girl and
dog at its core.
A tale of friendship and mystery for readers aged 9-12.
Perfect for young animal lovers and fans of The Mountain
Rescue Dog and The Last Bear.
