Timbrel Hogan and her service dog Beowulf are tapped to
help with a special ops mission in Afghanistan to find WMDs
(Weapons of Mass Destruction). Beowulf is an Explosive
Detection Dog (EDD) and has been trained to sniff out the
chemicals that are used in WMDs. Timbrel is attached to
James Anthony (Tony) VanAllen's Special Forces OAD452 unit
for this mission. She's worked with Tony, aka "Candyman,"
on previous missions. Tony has the hots for Timbrel, but
she gives him the cold shoulder and lots of attitude. Their
mission goes awry when the guys can't find any WMDs, even
though Beowulf sniffed them out. Everyone insists that
Beowulf is just off his game, but Timbrel knows
differently. Beowulf is never wrong, and Timbrel won't let
this matter rest, even after she returns to the US. Timbrel
continues to search for the truth about what Beowulf
sniffed out in Bagram. Can she find the terrorist who is
behind these WMDs in time to stop him?
BEOWULF is the third novel in Ronie Kendig's A Breed
Apart series. It is as hard-hitting as the previous two
books and a great Military War Dog story. Timbrel and Tony
are strong main characters with lots of passion for what
they do. Much of the story contains the love-hate
relationship between them as sparks fly freely. Timbrel and
Tony crisscross the globe and the United States in this
military thriller. Ms. Kendig also incorporates the use of
service dogs for veterans suffering from PTSD. Although
this may be the last in the A Breed Apart series, a new
one, titled The Quiet Professionals, will return some of
the characters to its pages. I can't wait to read those,
too!
Beowulf—a hulky, brindle-coated bullmastiff—is the only “boy” for Timbrel Hogan. And she has a history to remind her why. But when Timbrel, a handler at A Breed Apart, embarks on a mission to detect WMDs in Afghanistan, she reunites with Tony “Candyman” VanAllen and her no-other-man philosophy is challenged. While tension mounts between Timbrel and Tony, the team comes under fire after Beowulf gets a “hit.” When tragedy threatens Tony’s career and Timbrel’s courage, they must maneuver through an intricate plot and a mission like no other. . . .
