The Dead Season
Raine Stockton Dog Mystery #6
by Donna Ball
Very, very scary. This is one author who is not content to stick with the same formula over and over. She repeats the main characters, but varies the action so very much that I never know what to expect from a book.
And in this one the detective goes on a camping trip as "wilderness survival expert" with a group of troubled teens. She soon finds that the teens seem to be less troubled than the leaders--they're downright creepy. Not to mention that she doesn't agree with their methods for helping kids learn to work together or for wilderness survival.
Then, as you might expect but I didn't, they end up in a real survival situation. And it gets better. Best one of the series so far!
