Publisher Description

Andy Carpenter gains possession of an adorable Bernese puppy whose owner was brutally murdered. Few can rival Andy's affection for dogs, and he will do whatever it takes to insure that this little pup doesn't fall into the wrong hands. However, his playful new friend is valued by several people, many of whom are willing to resort to violence to get what they want. It will take more than Andy's usual courtroom theatrics to save this dog, including a little help from his beloved golden retriever, Tara. Andy soon discovers that anyone around him is in danger, including his long-time girlfriend Laurie, and he will have to muster all of his wits to save those he holds most dear.

"I can't believe I never read this series until just a month or 2 ago, and now here I am caught up with it except for the newest one which just came out! I love Andy and all other characters in the series, even "Hatchet", and I think this one would definitely be one of my favorites. Andy gets involved in a dog custody case, at Hatchet's behest, which turns into a double case. The dog, Waggy, is a central character in the case and the story takes a lot of twists and turns. A great read!"

    " I thought this book was cute and humorus. I don't know if I will continue to read this author. This was a new author that I tried and I'm glad that I tried him. But his writing style doesn't really reflect my reading style. "

    " This mystery has a defense lawyer as a protagonist, but it's okay because he's hilariously sarcastic. The courtroom drama was fun and interesting and the characters right up my alley. I plan on going back and reading more of the series. "

    " This was a very quick and enjoyable read for me. It was a fun, lighthearted murder mystery with some interesting characters and a couple of dogs. How could it go wrong? There were a couple of unexpected twists for me and although I often predict the bad guy before the end of these types of novels, I wasn't completely right in this one, which is always a pleasant surprise. I recommend it to dog lovers and people who enjoy a fun mystery. "

    " What is it about New Jersey? Another book set in New Jersey full of great one-liners. And the 'sleuth' is an attorney who besides being quite a wiseass, can afford to pick his cases and seems to only pick cases involving dogs. "

    " Andy Carpenter, his dog Tara, and the other characters in this series of legal mysteries, are so appealing that I forgive the thin plot and less- than-stellar prose. "

    " For those of you who love pet stories - this story isn't really about an animal as much as it is another in the series of Andy Carpenter stories. He happens to like animals and owns a well mannered dog named Tara. Andy Carpenter stories are light easy reads. "

    " Rosenfelt is usually pretty enjoyable even if slightly predictable. Marcus is usually good for a couple of laughs. His relationship with his girlfriend and dog gets a little tedious. "

    " This author is so refreshing----as are his characters. He has a wonderful sense of humor, and his main character (Andy Carpenter) has a terrific sardonic, wry wit. Plus it's an awesome story line! "

    " First time I have listened to an audio book in this series and the reader was quite good. I like Andy, but sometimes the humor gets laid on a bit too thick--i.e., it stops being funny as it sometimes comes at the expense of the story. "
