Dear Librarians,

A common question from visitors to my yard of eighteen huskies: "How do you tell them apart?" This has been the inspiration for each of my novels featuring sled dogs. I write about dogsledding because I want to share the magic of it. I want to show how it feels to glide silent down a snow-packed trail, the runners shushing under your feet, frozen clouds of breath rising in the air. But the best part for a musher is watching the JOY of the dogs. The magic of dogsledding comes from the relationship a musher has with their team.

In DOG DRIVEN, you'll meet McKenna, who's not only attempting a race through the Canadian wilderness, she's also hiding a dangerous secret — she's losing her vision. Of course, McKenna can still tell her dogs apart. But can her commitment to them keep her safe? Read the book to find out! I hope you feel the magic too.
