Expanded Description:
It's an all-new case for Melanie: a husband, an eight-year-old son and, count them, five poodles. Finding a new, bigger house is at the top of her agenda. To add to the mayhem, Melanie has got the task of keeping an eye on her disconcertingly beautiful new neighbor, whose absent husband is nearly as worrisome as her seven wandering outdoor cats. Melanie's poodles are constantly being provoked by the frisky felines. Melanie is not going to let all of the chaos in her life deter her from enrolling her dog Faith in obedience school. The South Avenue Obedience Club to be exact, which seems to be a fun challenge. Melanie is especially eager to bring Faith to the group's program at the Winston Pumpernill Nursing Home. Obedience club member Paul Lennox initiated the outings to please his Great Aunt Mary and the other dog lovers at Winston Pumpernill. All is nice and good at Pumpernill, that is until Aunt Mary is tragically found suffocated during Melanie's first visit. Melanie's investigative pedigree quickly comes to light and the club members urge her to track the killer. Suspects, motives and opportunities are plentiful. Melanie simply has to sniff out the culprit -- and watch her back.

| expanding my horizons..., May 28, 2008 |
| Reviewer: Stevie Mathre |
Being a therapy team with Delta, teaching therapy classes, officer of the club... I guess I'm a real advocate of a national organization & insurance & accountability for doing therapy visiting... And not of the 'local club goes to visit a relative & anyone else there' type of therapy. That's my issue.
Again, it's a mystery about people, and there are dogs in there too.
The ending, though, Mel's last visit to the crotchety old lady, is very moving, and I have expanded my pack and choice of species. Yes, I have a (not telling you...) now, and Mel's to blame! |
