But can she ignore the fact that Guarini's killed so many people even the FBI's lost count? Hardly. One day into training and Guarini's right-hand man is shot dead. The official story is a heart attack. Holly knows better. Between jump-starting a romance on the side and teaching a Mob pup to fetch, she's found herself in the middle of a vendetta with a family well-trained in murder. And it's going to take more than an understanding of the animal instinct to get away without getting bitten.
