"Suspenseful.Henderson''s evident passion for and expertise in animal science enlivens the clever mystery plot." -- Publishers Weekly "Compelling, captivating, and compulsively page-turning. Alice Henderson is a master at drawing the reader into the rugged terrain where wildlife biologist Alex Carter finds the endangered jaguar isn''t the only one in the crosshairs. With a ripped from the headlines plot, The Vanishing Kind is environmental suspense at its finest." -- James L''Etoile, award-winning author of Face of Greed and River of Lies "Intrepid wildlife biologist Alex Carter is back.This on-the-page, ass-kicking heroine is just as cool as the real-life endangered species expert and author who writes her.and I remain a huge fan of both.
Recommended for fans of page-turning thrillers infused with facts about some of the world''s most elusive and fascinating animals." -- Sara DiVello, author of Broadway Butterfly and founder/host of Mystery and Thriller Mavens "Alice Henderson does not disappoint action-seeking readers.A rip-roaring, satisfying yarn." -- BookTrib "Read The Vanishing Kind, and enjoy it for the plot, the characters and the wonderful writing. Share it because of its importance and the environmental message it carries." -- Bookreporter.com "Henderson once again delivers a vivid, visceral reading experience.

" -- Suspense Magazine "Henderson neatly integrates a master class on forests, caribou, and other endangered animals into Alex''s suspenseful search for caribou--and for a killer. Alex, who thrives on the outdoors and solitude, makes a formidable heroine, while the breathtaking scenery illustrates why a person would want to be one with nature. Environmental crime fiction doesn''t get much better than this." -- Publishers Weekly on A Ghost of Caribou "Readers who enjoy a well-paced, suspenseful thriller will give this book a thumbs up, but A Ghost of Caribou is more than that.As much as we care about Alex''s fate at the hands of a killer, we also care about the animal that brought her to the mountains in the first place. There''s real passion here, and that gives the novel added substance." -- Booklist "[A] superb thriller of heart-pounding suspense set amid the rugged beauty and majestic wildlife of the Pacific Northwest." -- Dirk Cussler, New York Times bestselling author on A Ghost of Caribou "A Solitude of Wolverines by Alice Henderson is a thriller with a heart, a riveting story of conspiracy, murder, and wilderness survival that will keep you turning the pages.
Vivid characters, a pulse-pounding plot, a fascinating wildlife-conservation background, and beautifully realized settings make this an exceptional read. This is the first book in a series about wildlife biologist Alex Carter; I can''t wait for the next one." -- Douglas Preston, bestselling coauthor of Relic and Crooked River "What a treat! Alice Henderson has delivered a treasure of a novel--and, to readers'' delight, a promise of more where this came from. Her depiction of the natural world in all its beauty and terror is spot-on.

A great read!" -- Nevada Barr, New York Times bestselling author on A Solitude of Wolverines "A true stunner of a thriller debut.It''s so fraught with excitement and wondrous details that it demands to be read in one sitting and savored afterward.
