Dana Mentink Synopsis: Killer Cargo is a standalone title by Dana Mentink. Transporting pet supplies – as well as the odd rabbit – is routine for pilot Maria de Silva. Discovering drugs amidst her shipments of kitty litter is not. Out of fuel in the Oregon wilderness, Maria barely escapes with her life when dealers meet her on the runway. She finds refuge at Cy Sheridan’s idyllic animal sanctuary – a whole new world for this city girl. But Maria fears that her drug-smuggling client will take revenge against the man – and animals – she’s come to love. Is there a wolf in sheep’s clothing lurking in the woods?
