Summary

Kat Albrecht is the only law-enforcement based pet detective in the United States. Since 1997, Albrecht and her search dogs have located lost cats, dogs, ferrets, turtles, horses, and other species using techniques that are normally used to solve missing person investigations. Full of heartwarming and inspiring tales of rescue, The Lost Pet Chronicles tells the story of Kat's unlikely career path and of how discovering the work she loved transformed her from a dissatisfied cop into a woman with a true personal and professional calling.
