Description

Professional dog walker Ellie Engleman is more than just a pal to her pooches-she can also read their minds. When Ellie and her terrier mix Rudy find the corpse of a troubled-but-harmless park-dwellerin Central Park, the dog walker becomes aprime suspect for murder.

When it turns out Rudy is the sole beneficiary of the victim's inheritance, Ellie, Rudy, and Detective Sam Ryder follow the trail of clues to a key to a safety deposit box that just might point to the motive and help them sniff show more out the real killer.

I will admit that I talked to my dogs and my cats...and every other four-legged creature that owned me...as if they were human and couldn't wait to get my opinions on events and happening in our lives. I think that sometimes they might have answered me. That said... I completely understood Ellie talking to her dog...Rudy. However...when the police and others started "listening" to Rudy...I had to be a bit skeptical. On further thought I decided that Rudy was far smarter than any of these humans. I really don't think the books are meant to be taken seriously...and the two legged characters certainly aren't. They all came across as delusional on several levels. Actually when giving it some thought...I think Rudy may have written the book.
