I couldn’t wait to get my hands on show as well as Tell, the third book in Amy Shojai’s thriller series featuring animal behaviorist September Day, her dog shadow as well as feline Macy as well as a cast of other cats as well as dogs. I understood from reading the very first two books in the series to set aside some uninterrupted time, since I discovered them impossible to put down when I started.
From the publisher:
With her stalker lastly caught, animal behaviorist September Day’s PTSD has abated as well as she’s begun to trust again. She dares to hope Detective Jeff Combs may ended up being more than a friend, up until his investigation into a dogfighting sound leaves her reeling. shadow wrestles his own demons. A German Shepherd autism service dog before losing his-boy to a health and wellness crises, shadow discovered like as well as his true function working with September. now his-boy is back–but changed–and shadow fears he’ll be required to choose. When a determined mom demands help, as well as Combs’s son vanishes with his dog, September as well as shadow must discover the kids before a devastating storm hits. however the kids have a trick plan of their own. only when September shows true courage, as well as a good-dog tells the truth, can they discover their method house again.
Amy has ratcheted up the tension in this installment – something I didn’t believe was possible after reading the very first two. even though there are fewer plot twists in this one, there’s a sense of seriousness to this book, a sense that is made even more intense by the truth that the plot is set against a background of extreme weather condition ranging from floods to thunderstorms to tornadoes. In fact, at times, the weather condition puts September into far more dire predicaments than the poor guys. For somebody like me, who doesn’t offer well with extreme weather, a few of the passages in the book were truly terrifying – a testament to Amy’s skill as a writer.
This book has whatever a great thriller should have: tension, unpredictability, well-developed characters. however it likewise has something that your typical thriller doesn’t have: the animals. parts of the book are written from Shadow’s point of view, as well as I’ve come to like this dog with these passages as if I had satisfied him in genuine life. Throughout the book, the author’s extensive understanding of animal habits as well as animal emotions is apparent. Amy even added a “fact as well as fiction” section at the end of the book, explaining what’s genuine as well as what’s fantasy.

If you’re a fan of medical thrillers by the likes of Tess Gerritsen, Robin cook or Michael Palmer, you will absolutely like this book. If you enjoy a well-written secret featuring a great deal of animals, you will likewise like it. just don’t plan on choosing it up unless you have some additional free time. show as well as tell can be checked out as a standalone book, however why deprive yourself of the excitement trip of reading all three books?
