and Ellis on a trip to a deep dark forest, where stories about ghost
dogs abound. Tied up with JJ, a cub reporter, trying to impress his
newspaper father, the two investigators use all of their amazing skills

have powers beyond the normal, as Ellis feels the air drop suddenly in

to ice. But when JJ hires a hunter to find the boy, Meriel and Ellis

feral child, and can hardly resist moving in with the dog pack. This
new series is sure to please those seeking adventurous stories with a
dose of the paranormal.
