About this listen

Jeffrey B. Burton's The Finders marks the beginning of a fast-paced new mystery series featuring a heroic golden retriever cadaver dog named Vira and her handler, Mason Reid.

Mason "Mace" Reid lives on the outskirts of Chicago and specializes in human-remains detection. He trains dogs to hunt for the dead. Reid’s coming off a taxing year - mourning the death of a beloved springer spaniel as well as the dissolution of his marriage. He adopts a rescue dog with a mysterious past - a golden retriever named Vira. And when Reid begins training Vira as a cadaver dog, he comes to realize just how special the newest addition to his family truly is....

Suddenly, Reid and his prize pupil find themselves hurled into a taxing murder case that will push them to their very limits. Paired with determined Chicago Police Officer Kippy Gimm, Mace must put all his trust in Vira's abilities to thwart a serial killer who has now set his sights on Mace himself.

Critic reviews

"I was cheering for Vira the golden retriever from start to finish and you will be, too. The Finders gets its hooks into you and doesn't let go." (Spencer Quinn, author of the New York Times best-selling Chet and Bernie series)

"When Chicago dog trainer Mace Reid rescues a fearless golden retriever named Elvira - Vira for short - he doesn’t know he’s just saved the best cadaver dog ever. But the clever K-9 proves her mettle when she and Reid join forces with police officer Kippy Gimm to take down a serial killer whose next victim may be Reid himself. The first in a new series, The Finders boasts a compelling roller-coaster ride of a plot, but ultimately the star of the show is Vira, a fierce beauty of a canine that dog lovers will find impossible to resist." (Paula Munier, USA Today best-selling author of A Borrowing of Bones)

"Sharp, determined and intuitive, Vira the golden retriever is the Sherlock Holmes of cadaver dogs." (Neil S. Plakcy, author of the Golden Retriever mystery series)

Delightful Canine as Hero

Narration was great and embodied the characters. Plot held my interest and moved quickly. A little cursing/swearing but not a lot. Creepy bad guys and not predictable. Love the main characters and especially the connection with the dogs. I was looking for a canine related law enforcement or detective genre. I feel like I have read them all so was delighted to find this author. Hurry up and write more!! Only 3 in this audiobook series so far.

Will buy next book in this series and explore other books by writer and narrator! I am a dog trainer, and found this book to be compassionate, accurate and made feel all warm inside. The feelings he has toward his dogs mirrors exactly the way my heart swells with love for my dog(S) and the incredible bond I have with them! Great job!

I really like this book

The plot line is really out there, but it works. The characters are well developed and likable and I quickly got sucked right in. I hope the next volume is coming out soon. The writer style is concise, Pleasant, and the character development is on point.
