Endangered

Hayley Makk, a wisecracking 17-year-old high school dropout, works as a cub reporter for her dad’s independent tabloid newspaper in Halifax. She’s alone in the newsroom when a call comes through on the scanner. The cops have discovered a blood-spattered shack in the woods, where they believe a teenage victim has been murdered in a botched drug deal.
Just as she’s pursuing the first big scoop of her career, Hayley is pulled off the story by her dad, who forces her onto a research trip with her former biology teacher, to study a rare sea turtle and earn the final credit for her high school diploma. But the murder and the rare sea turtle turn out to be inextricably linked, and a tangled web of clues lead Hayley and 19-year-old RCMP officer Alex Turpin into a dangerous sting operation that leads to an unexpected villain.
"Endangered is a gripping tale, an adrenaline-driven adventure, chocked full of suspense. It will hold you hostage until the very end." -- Rick Mofina, International Bestselling author of FULL TILT.
