Scent of Hope by Susan May Warren // Review

Lucie's Review:

Second chances and justice in the frozen tundra. 

Private investigator Harley Tatum returns to a places she said she'd never go back to for the chance to bring the drug dealer who broke her family to justice. She forms an unlikely, but fitting partnership with Jericho Bowie and they use his dog Orlando to track the villains down. But as the tables turn, can Harley and Jericho stay one step ahead of a killer? 

A fast paced read, with a lot going on. the second in a series, but works as a stand alone as there is not much connection to the previous one besides the Alaska setting. Great character interaction and growth, it was cute how the dog Orlando really liked Harley. 

I liked how through it all Jericho was able to come to terms with the past. Engaging read with gripping storytelling. Strong faith, great characters, in a suspense-filled adventure. Highly recommend!
