Polly Evans had a mission: to learn everything possible about the howling, tail-wagging world of sled dogs. Fool’s errand? Or the adventure of a lifetime? The intrepid world traveler was about to find out. In the dead of winter, Polly Evans ventured to Canada’s far northwest, where temperatures plunge to minus forty and the sun rises for just a few hours each day. But though she was prepared for the cold, she never anticipated how profoundly she’d be affected by that blissful and austere place. In a pristine landscape patrolled by wolves and caribou, the wannabe musher was soon learning the ropes of arctic dogsledding, careening across the silent tundra with her own team of yapping, leaping canines. Shivering but undaunted, Polly follows the tracks of the legendary Yukon Quest, a dogsledding race more arduous than the Iditarod, witnessing a life-and-death spectacle she’ll never forget. Along the way she makes a stop at the Santa Clause house in North Pole, Alaska (where the post office delivers unstamped mail), and witnesses the astonishing northern lights weaving green and red across the sky. And before the snows melt in spring, Polly will have discovered a deep affection for the loving, mischievous huskies whose courage and enthusiasm escort her through the delights and dangers of living life at the extreme—in one of the most forbidding places on earth.

The sorceress of psychological suspense is back with the second book in her highly-anticipated new Nowhere USA series. Ninie Hammon is at her career-best in Mad Dog — a hair-raising tale that will make you jump and whip your flashlight around at small sounds in the night. Rabies is a terrible way to die. When Nower County veterinarian E.J. Hamilton rescues two little girls from the savage attack of a rabid Great Pyrenees, the beast almost rips his leg off. But worse than the injury is the fact that without the vaccine, E.J. will die of rabies within a week. Unfortunately, he can’t get to the hospital because a shimmering mirage called the Jabberwock has locked everyone inside the county borders. With E.J.’s rabies-clock ticking, childhood friends Charlie, Sam, and Malachi are desperate to solve the mystery of the Jabberwock. Is it somehow connected to what happened to Gideon? Maybe it isn’t just a ghost story that every man, woman, and child in that little town in Fearsome Hollow vanished into a mist one day exactly one hundred years ago? The “vanishing” has started happening again — residents of Nower are disappearing and the houses they lived in age a century overnight. If the Jabberwock is gobbling people up, how long before Nower becomes a ghost town? ★★★★★ “From the opening sentence to the last word you’ll be hooked! Unnatural events are still happening in Nower County. The residents are still trapped: no way in, no way out. Some still believe the dome will disappear with the next incoming storm, while others are beginning to realize that the dome is here to stay. How will they survive? I’m eagerly awaiting the next installment of this brilliantly told tale, as should you be.” — Reba ★★★★★ “This is the second in a series from Ninie Hammon.

Drop your Netflix subscription, and find this author! You will be taken on the rides of your life with her tales!” — K. Koch ★★★★★ “Why am I not surprised when I find that each book in a Ninie Hammon series is always better than the last one? Now we find that E.J., the local veterinarian, has been badly bitten by a rabid dog. No anti-venom, no physician, no way of stopping the onslaught of rabies and no way out of Nowhere County. What’s going to happen? E.J.’s friends are frantic and so am I because the end of the book is a total cliffhanger! I can’t wait for the release of Book 3!!” — Lynn Geth ★★★★★ “Ninie has done it again. The first two books in the Nowhere series are awesome. I keep thinking that I know what might happen, but don’t be fooled! There are twists around every corner. Great characters! Hammon has a way of turning everything upside down.” — DLloyd Mad Dog is the second book in Ninie Hammon’s new series, Nowhere USA, a riveting psychological thriller about the residents of a forgotten county that inexplicably sinks through reality to find itself in the middle of Nowhere. Fans of Justified, Under The Dome, and LOST will find themselves right at home in Nowhere USA.
