About this listen
When life goes to the dogs . . .
Will Sullivan couldn't be happier.
The newly divorced animal lover and amateur sleuth, Will Sullivan, owns a pet shop in an idyllic seaside town. Business is good, and he's dating again for the first time since his divorce, but it turns out that this brief period of peace, in the stormy sea of his life . . . is merely the eye of the storm.
In the course of a single day, Will's whole life is turned upside-down. A corporate giant threatens to destroy his business, his ex-wife decides to move back to town, and worse yet, he discovers a body. When the woman Will is dating is mistakenly taken into custody, it's up to Will, with the help of an adorably enthusiastic shelter dog, to uncover the identity of the killer, in a town where just about anyone could be a suspect.
Can he solve the crime, save the day, and get the girl?

My life was going just fine by most standards. I ran a successful business in a tight-knit magical community, and lived just blocks from a beautiful lake and series of hiking trails. Then Selene showed up. According to some magical code I inherit my aunt's ancient familiar; a grumpy ten-pound cat with a broken filter. She fancies herself something of a saber-toothed tiger, and claims to have wrestled the thread of her ninth life from the hands of the Fates themselves—although, I'm pretty sure that last part isn't true. Almost positive.

There is, however, one never-ending source of irritation in the form of Police Chief Merrick Dawson. Merrick is Kip’s older brother’s BFF, and nothing seems to bring Merrick more joy than nagging Kip about silly things. You’d think a police chief would have more important things to do than lecture Kip on parking tickets and picking up pet waste, but somehow Merrick always finds the time.
