A truly excellent Meg & Hawk story - It gripped me from start to finish. I highly recommend this read - some writers do not continue to expand and engage the reader not Sara Driscoll. Very well done again

Love this series, Hawk and Lacey and their skills are fascinating. Joining a search and rescue in the Colorado mountain's for a crashed plane, is not Meg’s favorite idea. Frightened of heights it’s challenging to her skills and her health. Brian and Lacey, as always, are on the deployment also. With a mere 12 days till her wedding to Todd, this is going to be extremely challenging.
The conditions, the cold, lack of oxygen, and climbing up mountains, had me grabbing a sweater, and holding my breath! I felt like I was there!
The only part I found difficult was so much dialogue about equipment, directions and technical plans, I tuned out on these parts.
The suspense at the end kept me reading on the edge of my seat.
All in all a very exciting read.

FBI K9 handler Meg Jennings and her partner Hawk are back for the 9th installment in the thrilling FBI K-9's series. Meg and Hawk are off to the peaks of Aspen, Colorado, where a hijacked plane has crashed somewhere in the Maroon Bells Wilderness area. Joined by fellow agent Brian, and his partner Lacey, Meg and Hawk are on the search for the plane, and any possible survivors. The unforgiving high altitude, and the harsh conditions of the search will test Meg and Brian, and their loyal dogs, as never before. But when every second counts, and lives are on the line, Meg and Brian must find a way to get the job done, preferably quickly, as Meg is supposed to marry her firefighter/emt fiance Todd Wells then. Will they find any survivors? Will Meg make it to her wedding? You will be up late reading every night to find out. The suspense and action are nonstop, and the detailed descriptions of what it takes to participate in a mountain rescue make you feel like you are right there on the mountain with the K-9's and their humans. Although you can read this as a stand alone - do yourself a favor and read the whole series. A strong female lead, dogs, excellent writing, and heart pounding suspense make this series and especially this book, a must read.

Full disclosure - I was a volunteer consultant for the Aspen based part of the book, as I have lived nearby for 35 years, and I recreate in the Maroon Bells Wildernexs often. However, I am not a climber, or even a serious hiker, so I wasn't much help on that part of the book! But Sara nailed all of it, despite my shortcomings. ,I have been a fan of the author and this series from book #1, so it was an honor to be a part of this one. Thank you to Sara Driscoll, Kensington Books, and Netgalley for the advanced reader copy.. This review is my honest opinion. but I must acknowledge that this book is my favorite of the series. How can it not be - it's set literally in my backyard, in the mountains that I love. But despite my clear bias - this is an excellent book in a fantastic series!

I love this series and I love the relationships between the dogs and their human. A bond that can’t be broken. Meg with Hawk and Brian with Lacey are sent into the mountains to find a plane crash. Once locating it they must look for survivors and the cause of the wreckage.
Goodreads

Summit’s Edge, the latest in Sara Driscoll’s FBI K-9 series, is detailed, complex, and engrossing from beginning to end. The author takes us on an intense trek through the Colorado Rockies as Meg and Hawk, Brian and Lacey, along with two FBI agents, and two local Search and Rescue volunteers hunt and track potential survivors of a plane crash and the hijacker responsible for the disaster. I loved the story, was totally captivated, and enjoyed all l learned about trekking and climbing in the mountains.
