I love David Rosenfelt's books. If you're an animal lover you will enjoy the Andy Carpenter books. David includes a golden named Tara in his books. David Rosenfelt is a dedicated animal rescue guy. In this book he and a friend start up an animal shelter for homeless dogs. And Andy thinks his dog Tara is smarter than anyone or anything. Good twists and turns in his books. David Rosenfelt enjoys getting feedback about his books using his web site. I feel the money I spend on his books is being put to rescuing goldens. He has pictures of his goldens on his website too.

Really enjoyed attorney Andy Carpenter's smart-mouthed, wise-cracking comments....kept me smiling throughout the book! His relationship with private investigator, Laurie Collins was refreshing to read also. The edge-of-your-seat detective storyline kept you going til the end. It was a quick read but most enjoyable! I will definitely be reading more of Rosenfelt's books.

All of David Rosenfelt mysteries are highly entertaining. It is fun to read several of them because of the character development and running humor, but not necessary to enjoy them. This was another winner!
I'm glad David gave up California to move to Maine with his 27 dogs and write more mysteries!

Loved this one more than the first in this series! Can't wait to read No. 3! Rosenfelt's style is quickly paced and to the point...doesn't waste any words with unnecessray tedious explanations... he describes in detail what needs to be described and nothing more....I like that! Love the wit and humor he uses as well!

The first book in this series didn't do it for me for some reason, but I really enjoyed this one. The courtroom drama was solid, and the banter was witty. I also can't resist any book with a dog on the cover.

Good book with lots of twists. The author includes a dog, a golden named Tara. In this book he and a friend start a rescue animal shelter with their sudden wealth. I love the idea the main character is such an animal lover. The author is a huge animal lover, he does rescue work with Golden's, I feel when I pay full price for one of his books my money is going to be used to help with his rescue dogs. His books keep me interested and I find I can't put them down until I finish them so I can start the next one to find what Andy and Tara might be up to next.
