The Dogs Allan Stratton

Marc Notes: Cameron and his mom have been on the run for five years. His father is hunting them. At least, that's what Cameron's been told. When they settle in an isolated farmhouse, Cameron starts to see and hear things that aren't possible. Soon he's questioning everything he thought he knew and even his sanity. Review Quotes: "A real page-turner... [The "Dogs"] stayed with me for days, author Allan Stratton having created an unsettled aura the likes of which Alfred Hitchcock and Stephen King routinely built into their work, too... Stratton's depiction of setting and characters is masterful, and his ability to create tension and keep readers on edge is equally strong." - Montreal Gazette Review Citations: School Library Journal 07/01/2015 pg. 88 (EAN 9781492621010, Paperback) School Library Journal 07/01/2015 pg. 89 (EAN 9781492609384, Hardcover) Kirkus Reviews 07/01/2015 (EAN 9781492609384, Hardcover) - *Starred Review Quill & Quire 01/01/2015 pg. 47 (EAN 9781443128308, Hardcover) - *Starred Review Contributor Bio:  Stratton, Allan ALLAN STRATTON is the internationally acclaimed author of Chanda s Secrets, winner of twenty-six awards and citations including the ALA s Michael L.
