Silent Creed (Ryder Creed #2)

Most of them were asleep in their beds when the ground gave way. . . .
When Ryder Creed responds to a devastating mudslide in North Carolina, he knows the difference between finding survivors and the dead—is time. Heedless of the dangers, Creed and his best search-and-rescue dog Bolo frantically wade through the chaos of twisted tree limbs, crumbled cement, and unrecognizable debris, when a second slide catches up with Ryder. And he is buried alive.   
Bolo makes it out, though, and leads the heroic rescue of his master. What they get when they pull Ryder out from the mud is much more than they bargained for. The secrets in the mud around Creed run deep, pointing to a possible serial killer and unexpectedly dredging up painful, hushed-up pieces of Creed’s own past.
The mysteries unearthed will bring Ryder Creed face-to-face with his past loyalties, deeply embedded survivor’s guilt, and a powerful figure from his past. He’ll have to rely on his dogs if he wants to make it through alive.  '

Review: I think I have a crush on Ryder Creed. I can honestly say he is one of my favorite male characters in a series out on the market right now and I just love this series by Alex Kava.
Now with that said, I loved Silent Creed. With this being the second book in the series it was excellent and I was so happy to see Maggie O'Dell in this book as well because I love the chemistry between her and Creed. The plot in the book was excellent with a bit a suspense and a nice cliffhanger that maybe the setup for the next book. I am not going to get into spoilers but a number of characters from past books from the Maggie O'Dell series were in this book and some of the things that took place in those books and the first one in the Creed series was discussed so I really enjoyed how everything fit together so well even though this could be a stand alone.
Needless to say I am giving Silent Creed five out of stars as I patiently wait for the next Alex Kava book.
