When teenage sisters go missing in the mysterious "Bennington Triangle" of Vermont, an area renowned for its disappearances and strange occurrences over the past 100 years, FBI agent Jack Juarez brings K-9 handler Jamie Flint and her dog Phantom in to assist with the search. When Jack realizes the case shares haunting similarities with the murders of the missing girls' aunts 10 years before, it becomes clear that he and Jamie are dealing with much more than two girls who simply wandered off the beaten path.

Story
It’s tough working nights with the NYPD. The crime rate is high, the hours are terrible, and forget about a personal life. So, when Officer O’Reilly and her K-9 Rolf switch over to the day shift, things look up. She’s even able to find time for a new boyfriend. But when the theft of a priceless painting from the Queens Museum leaves a fellow police officer dead, Erin and her four-legged partner find themselves dealing with dangerous criminals, sleazy art dealers, and obstructive detectives in a race to capture the killers...and just maybe bring closure to a 75-year-old crime.

Deputy Ryan Grady is an easygoing playboy who carries a surf board in the trunk of his patrol car and lives in the same rambling beach cottage his grandfather built 70 years ago.

Story
It's the Christmas season and veterinarian Kate Turner is not feeling very jolly. She's overworked, unappreciated, and dealing with two dissatisfied clients. Throw in a very complicated personal life and Kate's definitely got a case of the holiday blues. To make matters worse, Kate's ex-boyfriend, Jeremy, is mugged and robbed after they have a heated argument in the hospital parking lot. Then, two of her dissatisfied clients turn up dead (which really gets Kate's tinsel in a tangle). All of these events seem like coincidences, but they add up to something much more venomous.

Great Find....
- By shelley on 09-30-19
By: Alex Kava
Publisher's Summary
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)

Almost a very good book
I found a lot to like about "Finders". Great premise, vivid characters (especially the villain), and solid writing. Mace would have been more likable if he weren't so dimwitted. Good thing for him the dogs were smart.

Prepare for... nothing. No Surprises here
Here's another potential good story gone weak. Jeffrey makes the common mistake that more suspense makes for a better book. We need the suspense, the conflict; but it needs to be plausible. And suspense needs to be suspenseful. This isn't. Every situation that happens is obvious. The dogs make it interesting if you're a dog lover like me. But not even his star Golden Retriever can rescue this weak storyline.
You won't we surprised by any of the events to the point they become absurd, insulting your intelligence. Then you'll do what I did and stop listening and delete the book.

Likable characters
Wonderful dogs
Humor
Action
Nice Flow
Well Written
Easy Listen
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!

Good story
I enjoy stories that have dogs in them. The characters are interesting and the narrator excellent. There is a ton of snark in it which saves it from being too heavy since it deals with catching a serial killer.

Small parts of this book are worth reading.
I looked forward to enjoying a mystery featuring an unusual dog and handler, which in part this story was, however half the story was a tedious bloody and perverse view from a sadistic serial killer.
The author seemed to attempt a light hearted dog loving hero such as David Rosenfelt’s Andy Carpenter
An interesting dog trainer with a gifted dog showed promise. To bad the author spent half the book inflicting his sadistic killer on the reader.
