About This Audiobook

Defense attorney Andy Carpenter runs the Tara Foundation dog rescue as a labor of love, and one of its prison training programs puts him in proximity to Brian Atkins, an inmate who bonds beautifully with a fox terrier named Boomer. When Brian engineers an escape using the dog as cover, then turns up arrested for murdering the man whose testimony convicted him, Andy finds himself with a new client and a new dog. The deeper he digs into Brian's fraud conviction, the more dangerous the territory becomes.

Grover Gardner is pitch-perfect for David Rosenfelt's brand of legal comedy and genuine suspense. His delivery captures Andy's self-deprecating wit without undercutting the legitimate stakes of the case, and the novel's affection for dogs comes through warmly rather than sentimentally. At under eight hours, this fourteenth Andy Carpenter entry is a brisk, satisfying listen.
