Best Driscoll to date, and last, I think

No Man's Land
by Sara Driscoll

Urban exploration. I'd never heard of it.
Urban exploration (often shortened as UE, urbex and sometimes known as roof-and-tunnel hacking) is the exploration of man-made structures, usually abandoned ruins or hidden components of the man-made environment.

In this challenging case, Meg and Hawk go along on a jaunt to check out an abandoned building, just for training purposes. But, of course, they find a recently deceased body. (Hawk is not a 'cadaver dog' but if someone has died recently enough, they still smell like a human being. And that's his forte--finding people)

And once again it's a race against time and death as Meg's team--sort of like the Avengers in their diversity and unique abilities--track down a killer who's not finished yet. And unlike the last book, Ms. Driscoll didn't take any annoying side trips into the killer's head. I loved this one even better than the last...and just be warned--

If you possess a healthy respect for heights, the scariest parts of this book may keep you awake at nights.
