EXPLOSIVE SECRETS
When a bomb explodes at the Washington Monument, the Capitol K-9 Unit goes on high alert. Though injured in the blast, K-9 cop Isaac Black is determined to get to the bottom of the situation. He’ll follow every lead, including investigating his ER nurse’s suspicious behavior. He soon learns Daniella Dunne has long been in a witness protection program. And it’s apparent that her identity has been compromised. The killer she once sent to prison—her own father—has been released and vows revenge. As Isaac and his stalwart beagle safeguard Daniella at his family’s farm, a murderer with a personal score to settle lurks in the shadows…
Capitol K-9 Unit: These lawmen solve the toughest cases with the help of their brave canine partners
“You can tell me,” Isaac said.
Daniella pulled away. “Tell you what?”
“Why you’re so afraid.”
He thought she was going to leave the hospital room without replying, but then she said, “I just hate bombs, that’s all. They’re so indiscriminate. So lethal.”
Isaac nodded. “This one wasn’t much, if that helps any.”
The heartrending look in her emerald-green eyes penetrated his defenses despite his strong resolve. It had been a long time since he’d seen that much poignancy and sorrow in a person’s gaze.
This shy, quiet woman had given his heart a twist without saying a word.
Why is she so afraid?

“Capitol K-9 Unit Five, safety check at Washington Monument complete,” Isaac Black radioed via the com-link he wore. “DC police are also on scene for crowd control.”
“Copy,” echoed back into his earpiece. “Stand by.”
Isaac turned his attention to Detective David Delvecchio of the DC Metro squad and smiled. “You look like something’s bugging you. What’s the matter?”
