The Shepherd: The Valentine and the Pit

Like their father, Prof. Lawrence Miller (aka The Shepherd), Lexi and her little brother Nico are lightning rods for those in need. One such person arrives at their door-a little girl named Vee. The child has recently escaped from a vicious killer. Traumatized, the girl explains that when she was taken, she was carrying a gift for her mother. During escape, it was left behind. Now, Vee wants it back. In The Pit, Lexi and Nico are visited by a spectral dog, a victim of a local dog-fighting ring. Yet, despite his brutal death, the spirit is determined to free the surviving animals still imprisoned. What follows is a desperate rescue attempt that penetrates the heart of darkness.
