Where is Audrey?

Alice feels the breath sucked from her body. First, she tumbles. Then her bloodhound, Audrey—her closest companion, who came to her rescue when Alice’s husband died—goes missing. The spring storm has uprooted trees and exposed sharp, shattered roots. Streams overflow their banks. Audrey is committed to follow the scent of a missing person, but bloodhounds become blind to the world as wrinkly skin covers their eyes, and she might walk straight into a tree. Alice’s heart beats with urgency. Where did Audrey go? Is she safe? And now how will anyone find Lyle Quarfoot, the missing, naive young man who generally bumbles into things? Alice’s grit takes over. She is going after her dog to rescue her own life.
