Book Synopsis



An early October snowstorm isn't the only thing that blindsides K9 handler Ryder Creed and his scent dog, Grace. SUDDENLY THE TRACKERS BECOME THE TRAPPED.

"Kava melds fact and fiction into a fast-moving, compelling and totally believable story." -Crime Review, UK

IT BEGAN AS AN ORDINARY SEARCH.

K9 handler, Ryder Creed and his scent dog, Grace return to Nebraska to join FBI Agent, Maggie O'Dell on the same task force that helped rescue his sister, Brodie a year ago. But their job is interrupted when a rural Postal carrier finds a black, plastic bag discarded in a grassy roadside ditch. What's inside is shocking to even these seasoned investigators.

TRUST NO ONE.

Just that morning another young woman has gone missing. Is her disappearance connected? Did she run away? Or was she taken? And is it only a matter of time before she ends up in a roadside ditch?

Ryder agrees to search for her, but an early snowstorm threatens to replace the warm fall temperatures. His scent dog, Grace has never worked in cold and snowy conditions.

THEN EVERYTHING GOES WRONG.

The snow blurs the landscape and grinds life to a halt. As Maggie O'Dell searches for answers about the victim, she begins to uncover a cold-blooded, ruthless killer who has murdered before. By the time Maggie realizes no one has heard or seen Ryder since before the snow began to fall, she fears he and Grace may have walked into the killer's path.

In the seventh installment of the addictive Ryder Creed K-9 mystery series (after Hidden Creed), Alex Kava delivers a mesmerizing, dark tale of mayhem that spans the state of Nebraska. This time out, Ryder drives from the Florida panhandle to Nebraska along with his partner Grace, a Jack Russell terrier, to assist on an investigation with Tommy Pakula, a special investigator of the Nebraska Human Trafficking Task Force. In another county of Nebraska, Anne Brown, a rural postal worker, stumbles across a dismembered body in a black plastic bag. But this is just the first on a trail of bodies strategically left behind by a killer searching for the one that got away. Soon, Ryder and Grace travel to the site where the body was found to offer their assistance. When inclement weather rolls in, Ryder finds the hideaway of a missing young woman named Libby Holmes. But he can’t escape the targeted knife skills of Ariel, a dangerous woman who has no qualms about stabbing him. With a knife wound, as well as two unstable women who may or may not be associated with the killer at large, Ryder uses every feasible means possible to save himself. Miles away, Maggie O’Dell, Tommy, and a number of Ryder’s other friends race against the clock to locate him before the killer does. All the while, Maggie’s feelings for Ryder permeate her thoughts and actions until she sees him in the flesh. Kava writes about their tenuous relationship in such a heartfelt, endearing way, readers will be eager to see how the two of them move forward despite being miles apart. In a novel that is as spellbinding as it is clever, Kava once again shares her vision with us with unparalleled skill, proving once again why she is one of my all-time favorite writers. From the first chapter to the last, Fallen Creed is a pulse-pounding page turner fraught with intense emotion and characters we can’t help but care about. Readers will not be able to put down this harrowing thriller. This is Kava at her very best!
