The Rescue
is a gripping thriller that explores the strength of the human-animal bond and
how far we will go to protect what we love by three-time Edgar Award winner and
New York Times bestselling author T. Jefferson Parker.
While reporting on a Tijuana animal shelter, journalist Bettina Blazak falls in
love with one of her story’s subjects―an adorable Mexican street dog who is
being treated for a mysterious gunshot wound. Bettina impulsively adopts the
dog, who she names Felix after the veterinarian who saved him. Bettina discovers
that Felix is a former DEA drug-sniffing dog, and he has led a very colorful,
dangerous, and profitable life!
With Bettina’s story going viral, some interesting people are looking for Felix,
making him a target―again.
Bettina soon finds herself drawn into a deadly criminal underworld from which
she and her beloved dog may not return.
"T. Jefferson Parker is a marvel. I’ve been reading him with delight and
admiration for years. The Rescue again shows that he hits the high water mark
for crime fiction every time out. Graceful prose, nuanced characters, an
emotional thread woven through each scene tying it to a propulsive plot. Whether
he’s writing about cartels or PD, street dogs or reluctant heroines, he gets to
the authentic and the compelling."
―Gregg Hurwitz, the
New York Times bestselling author of Dark Horse
“Parker’s The Rescue ain’t no street mutt of a book, but rather a Westminster
Kennel Club Dog Show blue-ribbon, pure pedigree of a novel with claws sharpened
and fangs bared. Fass!"
―Craig Johnson,
bestselling author of the Longmire mystery series
