War Hawk by James Rollins and Grant Blackwood - the second book about Tucker Wayne and his war dog Kane. Tucker is contacted by a former army colleague, telling him she and her son are in danger and another colleague is missing. Lots of action with shooting, explosions, intelligent drones, and Kane biting the bad guys. One of my least favorite plots, a megalomaniac trying to control everything, this time using cyber information. I'm reading this series for the dog.

Ashley Bell by Dean Koontz - Bibi Blair has just been told she has incurable cancer. After a strange experience in the night, she finds she has been cured. Why? She comes to believe it is to save Ashley Bell. But who is Ashley Bell and where is she? Who are the strange people after her? And what are the memories she can't remember? I got sucked into this right away and then two thirds in there was a twist that made me wish I could read faster. I've never read Dean Koontz because I've always thought of him as an author of the supernatural and horror. Although this has a touch of that, I prefer to think of it as suspense and fantasy. This is one you'll either love or hate. 560 pages that flew by.
