    The above list is the publication order of Anna Pigeon series but I know it isn’t the chronological since the book The Rope is the prequel and it is one of the last published. After The Rope do the books follow in the sequence that they were published?

      track of the cat was the first anna pigeon the rope is a flashback to annas first assignment as a ranger u can read it first and then continue by order of publication seamlessly I enjoyed it as a flashback as I was introduced to her books by a park ranger at Yellowstone in 1999.
