“A haunting tale of tribulation turned to triumph that only Margaret Mizushima could create. Mizushima masterfully mines Mattie Walker’s own troubled past when Mattie and her crack K-9 Robo confront the worst the world has to offer — the brutalization of throwaway children — making for a poignant and compelling tale with a fiery finish.”
—Scott Graham, National Outdoor Book Award-winning author of Great Sand Dunes Massacre
“As a retired K-9 handler and award-winning author, I know Mizushima’s books will be exceptional, edge of your seat reads. Her ability to spin a compelling mystery along with K-9 work is a unique talent. Mizushima weaves in a breathtaking setting in the Colorado wilderness and dynamic characters to create an extraordinary and poignant read that will immerse you until the very end. Fighting Edge is another winner in this amazing series!”
