"On his thirty-sixth birthday, Travis Cornell hikes into the foothills of the Santa Ana Mountains. But his path is soon blocked by a bedraggled Golden Retriever, who will let him go no further into the dark woods. That morning, Travis had been desperate to find some happiness in his lonely, seemingly cursed life. What he finds is a friend-- a dog of alarming intelligence-- and a threat that could only have come from the darkest corners of man's imagination."--Page 4 of cover.

Review of 'Watchers' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

An intelligent dog that breaks away from an experiment facility, a broken man and an abused woman come together for an adventure that will breathe new life into each of them.

I read this book a long time ago and it stayed with me, but it took me forever to find it again. I was so happy to discover its original title and I think I can say it is worth reading if you enjoy science fiction tangled with romance and a little of suspense, but specially if you like dogs. I read this book 15 years ago and never forgot about it.
