An extraordinary bond develops between Lucca and Marine Corps dog handlers Chris Willingham and Juan Rodriguez, in what would become a legendary 400-mission career. A specialized search dog, Lucca belongs to an elite group trained to work off- leash at long distances from her handler to sniff out deadly explosives. She served alongside both Special Forces and regular infantry and became so sought-after that platoons frequently requested her by nameHere, in gritty detail, is the gripping account of Lucca’s adventures on and off the battlefields, including tense, lifesaving explosives finds and rooftop firefights, as well as the bravery of fellow handlers and dogs they served with. Ultimately we see how the bond between Lucca and her handlers overcame the endless brutalities of war and the traumas such violence can inflict.
