Riassunto

What?s causing the deaths of desert bighorn sheep in Death Valley National Park? Wildlife veterinarian Olivia Landon has been called in to investigate. The plot thickens when her daughter, Ashley, is kidnapped by militants who mistake her for Leesa, a mysterious girl temporarily in the Landons? care. Tension builds to a spine-chilling climax when a showdown in the desert leads the family to a missile testing site and the key to what is killing the sheep.

Recensione:

"If your vacation plans include a trip to a national park this summer, you might want to check out some of the books in a...series called ‘Mysteries in Our National Parks.’ Each story takes place in a different park, but you’ll get more than a travel guide. There’s plenty of excitement, too." Washington Post Kids Post
