Ingram

Holly Winter's life is going to the dogs, but that's just fine with her. She's a feisty, 30-something dog-lover, and her expertise in the breeding, training, and caring for canines is just one of her inbred talents. She's also a grand champion at tracking down criminals of the two-legged kind. When a dog owner is murdered at a training session, Holly enlists the victim's big Malamute to find the killer.

1.0 out of 5 stars You'd better be a dog fanatic or trainer!!!, Jul 21 2002

By	M. Rodgers (NJ USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I love dogs but if I had wanted to know the ins and outs of dog obedience training, including the different levels snd sub-levels, I would have bought a manual. I wanted a mystery with fully fleshed out characters and a plot that kept me guessing. I got neither. The characters were neither likeable nor substantive. Except for the cop next door, I have no idea what they even look like or what, if anything, they care about besides dogs. The plot was predictable and the action stuck in first gear. Maybe the series inmproves after this book. I'm not taking that chance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful weekend read!, May 3 1999

By A Customer

What a great story for dog lover's! I think I finally understand how obedience titles are awarded. Miss Conant draws the reader into the cozy Cambridge world and successfully portrays the unusual relationships that often form in dog training classes. People from such diverse backgrounds join together with one thing in common - a love of dogs! She accurately depicts some of the eccentric and frankly, zany personalities one finds in the dog show world. Her relationship with her vet adds further intersting and romantic plot direction. Her insights into how we all cope with the loss of our best friends were very touching. I enjoyed the book immensely and look forward to reading others in her series.
