PLEASE hurry and make Audiobooks of the rest of this series soonest .....I've read many others in the series and want to hear them all read by Donna Postel.The book was so good I'll re-listen many times, something I never do.

fun and exciting story.

I enjoyed a good story about search and rescue dogs. as a dog trainer I loved being able to hear the story from a trainer's perspective. I found it to be very relatable.

Good but short

Good narration. Simple story. Would have liked more detail on the training, a bit less on the emotive protagonist.

Dog lover's treat

The author's love and respect for dogs was evident throughout. I enjoyed it very much.

Great Series.

A sweet straightforward mystery. Not too violent or stressful and plenty of emotion. I am looking forward to getting to know them both better as the series progresses. Recommended for anyone who loves their dog and a good whodunit.
