Review

This is the third in the "Hero" series. Hero , a black Labrador retriever, is a search and rescue dog living with Ben, a fourteen year old, and Ben's family. In this book Ben and Hero must find Ben's father, a police officer, who ends up missing after going out to search for escaped convicts. The characters are well defined and the plot moves quickly. It is action packed and full of suspense like the other books in the series. Readers do not need to read the other books in the series to enjoy any of them. Recommended.

Overall Book Score: very good
