Book #2 - Finder

The second book in the Atticus Kodiak series, Finder takes place a few months after Keeper. Atticus is working a nightclub when he sees a girl he knows come in. It's a bondage club, and this girl is 15. He gets her out, and she disappears. It's a girl from his past and he can't let it go.

She's the daughter of a Colonel he protected. She says he's abusing her, but when Atticus goes to his house, the old man is sick, with AIDS. He's being lied to. When she's brought back by a few SAS men, and Atticus learns there's a rouge brick (platoon of SAS), he suspects the worst. When the Colonel asks him to protect his daughter, he's really worried. The SAS are the best of the best.

It's a protection gig, where Atticus once again gets friends and Natalie to help. There's an attack and he almost loses the girl, but then she runs. From there it's a twisty turn of plot changes that confuse us as much as Kodiak. In the end it's just sad. A sad way to end the book.

However it answers questions about things in later books.
