Once again, the winning combination is heart-racing action, humour, suspense, and a Golden Retriever. Make that two Golden Retrievers. Reggie comes onto the scene and he is smart, talented, and completely devoted to his human �� and he will do whatever he has to in order to save his human’s life.

Heroes abound in this story, and there is plenty to be heroic about. Andy Carpenter is shot at in a car, shot at in a baseball field, shot at as he’s about to enter a house �� someone wants Andy out of this case �� and he’s not the only one who is getting in the way of the bad guys. Whoever those bad guys are!

This case is riddled with question marks as large as skyscrapers. People who are supposed to be dead, aren’t. People who aren’t supposed to be dead, are. The problem is, who are these people and how did they become dead �� or not dead, as the case may be? And are some of these people bad buys or good guys? How does one tell when the motivations are so mixed up and the clues nothing but a gigantic bag of more question marks?

As usual with this series, it is difficult to put this book down for very long. The need to know what happens next is very strong and a testament to David Rosenfelt’s great writing skills. I am just thankful that I only have to wait another month before this series rotates to its next turn for reading!
