Before It's Too Late

De: Sara Driscoll

Narrado por: Angela Dawe

In this powerful K-9 crime thriller, FBI Special Agent Meg Jennings and her trusted search-and-rescue Labrador, Hawk, must race against the clock before a diabolical killer strikes again.

Somewhere in the Washington, DC, area, a woman lies helpless in a box. Beneath the earth. Barely breathing. Buried alive. In Quantico, the FBI receives a coded message from the woman's abductor. He wants to play a game with them: decipher the clues, find the grave, save the girl. The FBI's top cryptanalysts crack the code, and Special Agent Meg Jennings and her K-9 partner, Hawk, scramble to the scene of the crime. Cryptic clues lead them astray, and by the time they solve the puzzle, it's too late.

But the killer's game is far from over. Soon another message arrives. Another victim is taken, and the deadly pattern is repeated - again and again. Each kidnapping triggers another desperate race against time, each with the possibility of another senseless death. That's when Meg decides to try something drastic. Break the Bureau's protocol. Bring in her brilliant sister, Cara, a genius at word games, to decipher the kidnapper's twisted clues. Meg knows she's risking her career to do it, but she's determined not to let one more person die under her and Hawk's watch. If the plan fails, it could bite them in the end.

And if it leads to the killer, it could bury them forever.

before it's too late

excellent listen. love the SAR stories and am enjoying this series immensely. Hawk is a handsome dog by description and loyal, love it

SO GOOD!!!

You will not regret getting this book. In my opinion, the whole series are must haves. Sara Driscoll is absolutely one of the BEST authors I have ever read. (I read a lot, like … a lot). Her story line development is extraordinary. The extensive research and expert consults make her stories a genre of their own. This books location setting strongly appealed to me. I have read and listened to every one of her published books. I highly recommend this series to everyone. I always learn as much as I am entertained by her books. The reader, Susan Bennett, is fantastic and really brings the characters to life. I am a dog person and have trained a certified therapy dog and I beyond love the relationship Meg and Hawk have. Every time I re-read this book I enjoy it more. I also I start making plans to train my next doggo as a SAR dog.

Intense Emotional Riveting

I have really enjoyed this series so far it is very intense. The storytelling is very entertaining it keep your attention to the end and bring plenty of emotions. The narrator is really good one of the best I have listened too. She can do male and of course female voices very convincingly.

Great story line

Lots of action and suspense. I like that you couldn’t guess the unsub and everyone was a bad a$$!

Intense

Interesting story line with the added bonus for history buffs. Good title for this book. A thrilling FBI book. K9 dogs and their handlers and puzzles to solve the crimes. Well written with no chance to know who the mastermind is. Happy ending. Good read, or listen. Narration voices are pleasing. Have a listen today.
