May Title
The Vanishing Kind: An Action-packed Mystery Thriller
by: Alice Henderson
Suspenseful….Henderson’s evident passion for and expertise in animal science enlivens the clever mystery plot.” — Publishers Weekly
“Compelling, captivating, and compulsively page-turning. Alice Henderson is a master at drawing the reader into the rugged terrain where wildlife biologist Alex Carter finds the endangered jaguar isn’t the only one in the crosshairs. With a ripped from the headlines plot, The Vanishing Kind is environmental suspense at its finest.” — James L’Etoile, award-winning author of Face of Greed and River of Lies
“Intrepid wildlife biologist Alex Carter is back….This on-the-page, ass-kicking heroine is just as cool as the real-life endangered species expert and author who writes her…and I remain a huge fan of both. Recommended for fans of page-turning thrillers infused with facts about some of the world’s most elusive and fascinating animals.” — Sara DiVello, author of Broadway Butterfly and founder/host of Mystery and Thriller Mavens
“Alice Henderson does not disappoint action-seeking readers….A rip-roaring, satisfying yarn.” — BookTrib
“Read The Vanishing Kind, and enjoy it for the plot, the characters and the wonderful writing. Share it because of its importance and the environmental message it carries.” — Bookreporter.com
“Henderson once again delivers a vivid, visceral reading experience. A pulse-pounding mix of ecological suspense, timely social commentary, and razor-sharp survival instincts.” — Suspense Magazine
