The greatest threat to this K-9 team is the one they don't see coming.

DEA Special Agent Kent Thomson has his own personal reasons for bringing justice to the cartel. Cora and her drug-sniffing K-9 will only get in his way. Or are they assets that will enable him to right the wrongs of the past? 

When the cartel targets Cora, she and Kent join forces with her teammates at the Phoenix K-9 Security and Detection Agency to end the cartel before it ends her. They’re prepared for danger, but when more lives than their own hang in the balance, can they trust God for the rescue that’s out of their reach?

My Review 🖤

A major drug cartel that has managed to infiltrate every aspect of society, even reaching local schools, and involving anyone and everyone to push its agenda is a scary thought, but for every guy that is out seeking to do harm there are those out there fighting for good.  Kent and Cora are two of those individuals. 

Cora is an almost too good to be true character, with her unwavering faith, perseverance, and unnatural ability to see the good in everyone. Her amazing heart and spirit are inspiring, if not a little intimidating, but is a reminder to me of what a life led by the Holy Spirit can look like.  She affects people in the most beautiful of ways, and no one sees her shine brighter than Kent, the DEA special agent that is a little rough around the edges, especially after dealing with one of the biggest drug cartels for almost twenty years, but Cora’s unshakable faith motivates him to take a look at himself, and see the truth.

Hidden Danger is a fast paced suspense that will keep you on your toes, though I did find some of it to be pretty predictable, as is the case with most mysteries.  I picked up on some NCIS vibes, especially with the tight-knit, got-your-back K9 team, which was actually my favorite part of this novel.  I liked Kent and Cora but I felt like Cora was a bit naive, and there were moments that she put herself into very dangerous situations that could’ve had a very different outcome.  I struggled with feeling like this was more true to life than fantasy and I finally landed on the latter because of Cora.  Not to say that there are not those out there that have a strong faith, but I hope and pray that those individuals that do this for a living do not make the same choices Cora made, or put themselves in those positions.

One thing that really captured my heart was the Gospel being told.  Not many books lay it all out there and I truly believe that God will use this for His good, and I pray that lives will be saved.  I also adored the whole K9 team, and of course those precious dogs!  Any story that has a dog as part of its characters always gets me, and Hidden Danger is no exception.

If you want a quick, fast paced read that will keep you engaged, with wonderful characters and a heart of gold then you’ve found your next read!
