Tracking the Taken Child

A little girl has vanished…
Can a K-9 team find her?

Preschool teacher Lydia Caldwell’s peaceful day in the Rockies becomes her most harrowing nightmare when she’s pushed over a mountain ledge and her three-year-old daughter is abducted. Lydia must now entrust her life and her child’s fate to K-9 Officer River Jameson and his yellow Lab partner, Frankie. As the danger escalates and the trail grows colder by the second, River and Frankie work tirelessly to track down the kidnapper. Is the culprit Lydia’s ex…or is someone from her past seeking revenge? Will River’s skill and Frankie’s instincts save an innocent child—and protect Lydia from the elusive criminal targeting her?

About the Book

A promotional graphic for the Colorado K-9 Unit book series by Sharon Dunn and various authors. Against a misty mountain backdrop, eight book covers are displayed in a grid, each featuring a different K-9 partner including a Bloodhound, Yellow Lab, and German Shepherd. The text at the top reads "Colorado K-9 Unit featuring Tracking the Taken Child."

The Colorado K-9 Unit series is a Love Inspired Suspense continuity series that follows law enforcement officers and their K-9 partners as they track criminals, protect victims, and investigate connected cases across the Colorado Rockies. Each book combines fast-moving suspense with themes of faith, protection, and trust under pressure.

The series begins with Searching for the Truth by Laura Scott, where a K-9 officer uncovers a dangerous scheme tied to a personal past. It continues with Tracking the Taken Child by Sharon Dunn, where a K-9 team searches for an abducted child in the mountains.

As the series progresses, cases expand across rugged terrain and small mountain communities. Danger in the Rockies by Terri Reed involves mistaken identity and cartel ties, while Protecting the Baby by Jodie Bailey centers on guarding a child targeted by unknown enemies. Later books, including Fugitive Manhunt by Sharee Stover and Hunting an Arsonist by Jessica R. Patch, follow high-risk pursuits of escaped criminals and serial offenders.

The series builds toward larger threats with Uncovering Explosive Secrets by Maggie K. Black and Unraveling a Crime Ring by Valerie Hansen, where investigations reveal coordinated criminal activity. Across all eight books, the Colorado K-9 Unit works together to bring justice in remote wilderness settings where time, terrain, and hidden enemies increase the stakes.
