I recently finished a Great mystery novel called" ONE DOG NIGHT" in the "Andy Carpenter Novel" Series by David Rosenfelt and I can say I found a new favorite series! The author has been writing this series since 2003 and I happened to buy one on Amazon because there was a dog on the cover (yeah, I'm an easy sell when it comes to dogs). Turns out, the author is also very partial to dogs and has them on every cover of his series about an attorney. The story was fast-paced, exciting, and had great characters (including the dog). I LOVE it when authors write short chapters, and that's the style of this book. The characters are funny, witty, serious, smart and realistic. I was surprised by the ending in this book and loved it!
FIVE out of FIVE stars! - Rob
BOOK SUMMARY: For six years Noah Galloway has lived with a horrible secret and the fear that his rebuilt life could be shattered at any moment. Now his dread has become a certainty, and he has been arrested for the arson murder of twenty-six people.
What he needs now is defense lawyer Andy Carpenter, who most definitely is not in the market for a new client. So Noah plays his hole card: a shared love for Andy's golden retriever, Tara, and the knowledge of what her life was like before Andy rescued her. Because Andy wasn't her first owner—Noah rescued Tara first, and when he wasn't able to care for her any longer, he did everything in his power to make sure that she was placed in the right home: Andy's.
With that knowledge, Andy has little choice but to take Noah on, and he soon learns that the long-ago event that may destroy Noah's life is only the beginning of an ongoing conspiracy that grows more deadly by the day. Andy will have to pull out all of his tricks to get to the bottom of this cold case turned white hot in One Dog Night, the latest in David Rosenfelt's popular mystery series.
