A New Leash on Death

A BONE TO PICK

At dog obedience trials, fighting is common--especially between owners. But Dog's Life columnist Holly Winter is shocked when a mere training session ends in murder. Between sit, heel, and the final long down, a retired doctor takes the longest down of all--strangled with his malamute Rowdy's leash! And when Holly takes the big, beautiful orphaned dog home, he quickly becomes her cherished new partner in digging up clues to a crime that cuts to the bone with betrayal ... and touches the heart of everyone who has ever loved a dog.

A DOG LOVER'S MYSTERY

Holly Winter's life is going to the dogs, but that's just fine with her. She's a feisty, thirty-something dog-lover, and her expertise in the breeding, training, and caring for man's (and woman's) best friend is just one of her inbred talents--she's also a grand champion at tracking down criminals ... the two-legged kind.
