Rescue comes in unexpected ways for one man and his dog
in this moving and redemptive novel, The Dog Who Saved
Me, by New York Times bestselling author Susan
Wilson
Boston police officer Cooper Harrison never thought he'd go
back to his hometown, Harmony Farms. But when his faithful
K-9 partner Argos is killed in the line of duty, Cooper,
caught in a spiral of trauma and grief, has nowhere else to
turn. Jobless and on the verge of divorce, he accepts a
offer for the position of dog officer in Harmony Farms,
leaving the life he spent twenty years building behind.
And so he finds himself back where he started. Where his
father was once known as the town drunk and his brother
outgrew juvenile delinquency to become a drug dealer. Where
he grew up as ‘one of those' Harrisons. Cooper does his job
with deliberate detachment, refusing to get emotionally
invested in another dog the way he had with Argos—until he
finds himself rescuing a wounded and gun-shy yellow lab gone
feral.
Cooper never thought he'd find himself going back in order
to move forward, and yet Harmony Farms is the one place
where Cooper must learn to forgive and, only then, heal. All
with the help of a yellow dog.
