About this listen

Win, place, or die.

The apparent heart attack that killed kennel owner Max Turnbull has left seven pups in mourning, and his wife Peg suspecting foul play. But the only evidence is their missing prize pooch - a pedigreed poodle named Beau.

Enter Melanie Travis. With her young son happily ensconced in day damp, the 30-something teacher and single mother is talked into investigating her uncle's death - unofficially, of course. Posing as a poodle breeder in search of the perfect stud, Melanie hounds Connecticut's elite canine competitions and finds an ally in fellow breeder Sam Driver. But her affection cools when she's put on the scent of Sam's questionable past...and hot on the trail of a poodle-hating neighbor and one elusive murderer who isn't ready to come to heel.

For as Melanie soon discovers, in a championship dog-eat-dog world the instinct for survival, and winning, can prove fatal.

this was a fun book with great characters. I'm always looking for female sleuths.

The complete misrepresentation of the faith. A former nun and priest marrying….super weird and cringe. They are getting high marks because the performance is amazing.

Lapsed Catholics are the worst

I couldn’t get through more than an hour of this. The narrator spoke way too fast, I couldn’t tell who was speaking when, or even if it was just the main character speaking or thinking to herself. Too hard to follow.

Narrator spoke too fast!

Story was average, but narrator was distracting by reading too fast and sounds like Lisa Simpson.

I loved this dog Mystery! It’s similar to Krista Davis’ Paws and Claws Mysteries, and I love the fact that is has an owner and her pets solving mysteries just like Holly and Trixie with their elderly relatives that lost their pets and there’s a murder in every story!

Love A Good Dog Mystery!

the story was pretty good but the narrator talks like she is running a race. at times I could not tell which person she was speaking as. the story kind of drug on and I had a hard time getting through this book. I think the idea of it was good though.

not a great narrator

The book was an easy read/listen. Light enjoyable mystery. The narrator was on overdrive. Very fast. However, if you slow it down to .8, she was fantastic. Perfect speed with a full range of voices for the characters.

Easy read

Loved the story. Narrator is really hyper and talks extremely fast When there is ‘emotion’ she speaks on fast forward. Love the poodles!
