Duty. Honor. Betrayal. Kate Holland has a new case. A psychologist assigned to a Little Rock VA hospital was found brutally stabbed to death. Kate met the man mere days earlier...following his argument with her own shrink. At the victim's house, Kate's stunned to discover a cache of military-grade explosives. Is there more deadly C-4 floating around out there—and does someone have plans to use it? Evidence found in the victim's safe suggests yes. The psychologist was conducting a private investigation into a heinous crime that occurred more than two years ago and half a world away...in an active war zone. Back in Arkansas, connections and bodies have begun to multiply. Can Kate zero in on the killer before he obliterates the most innocent victim of all—with the rest of that stolen C-4? *This series has been optioned by a Hollywood producer. 🎉 **To prevent major plot and character arc spoilers, the books in this series should be read in order. Written by a former US Navy Lt., Blood on the Wire is Book 5 in the gritty Hidden Valor Military Veteran/K-9 Mystery Series and features Ruger—Kate's 3-year-old German Shepherd. PLEASE NOTE: There is a dog, but this is not a cozy mystery series. Cursing & gritty, graphic crime scenes abound throughout the Hidden Valor books. This series also contains a raw and honest portrayal of the themes of PTSD & suicide. If you like strong female protagonists and seriously gritty, complex suspense that twists and turns all the way to The End—you'll love Candace Irving's Blood on the Wire, a 145,000-word military mystery/suspense featuring Kate Holland and her K-9 partner.
