A WOMAN CHOKED INTO SILENCE AND HER DOG NAVIGATE A NEW LIFE TOGETHER ... BUT WILL HE FIND THEM. In this sequel to "The Community Garden … more than tomatoes are dying," Lizzy Mueller still can’t speak above a whisper, losing her voice when her husband Charlie strangled her in a rage. Rae, Lizzy’s new shaggy Bernedoodle, is deaf in one ear. Rae is Lizzy’s lifeboat, helping her adjust to a new life alone as she deals with the lingering trauma of losing her voice. Having lost faith in those closest to her, Lizzy pours all her love and affection into Rae, who returns her love unconditionally. Together, Lizzy and Rae live in a world of small sounds, subtle gestures, and learned hand signals … finding a way to communicate without words.

Years ago at the trial, Charlie professed his undying love by shouting, “Wherever you are, I will find you. We are meant to be together,” as they took him away. Worried that Charlie’s rich parents will expedite Charlie's release, Lizzy moved to Pine City, where she was determined to fly under the radar. She changed her name and appearance, kept friends to a minimum, and now lives a quiet life in hopes of eluding her dangerous ex.

When Charlie is released early, Lizzy knows it’s time to up her game, enrolling in a women’s self-defense class. “This time will be different,” Lizzy vows. “This time, I’ll be ready.”

Jiu-Jitsu isn’t Lizzy’s only defensive weapon. She also has Rae who can smell and hear things at a level that Lizzy cannot. Will Rae be able to warn Lizzy of the impending danger? Will Lizzy understand in time or will Rae’s warnings go unheeded?
