About This Audiobook

The Tara Foundation dog rescue is Andy Carpenter's true purpose in life, so when the alarm goes off and a recently rescued dog has been stolen, Andy takes it personally. The stolen dog leads to a dead man and an arrested suspect named Tommy Infante who Andy cannot quite believe is guilty. His investigation uncovers that whatever Infante was involved with connects to something far larger and more dangerous than a single murder, and that thousands of lives could depend on Andy finding the truth before someone stops him.

Grover Gardner is as reliable as ever in the Andy Carpenter series, giving the attorney's cynical-comic narration its proper rhythm and making the dog rescue world feel specific and genuine. Gardner's command of Rosenfelt's ensemble, from the perpetually pessimistic Willie to the determined Laurie, keeps the supporting cast vivid. At just under seven hours, this is a tightly plotted entry in the series that uses its canine hook with genuine affection.
