A Nose for Murder

Meet Jack Field: Dog's Best Friend

Ex—cop Jack Field abandoned New York to run a canine kennel in the rustic Maine woods. But murder and mayhem still seem to hound him wherever he goes ...

Jack's a dog trainer and a behavioral specialist —— not to mention the "main squeeze" of smart and sexy, part—time medical examiner, Jamie Cutter. That's why he's standing in a secluded cabin by alike on an icy December evening, with Allison DeMarco lying dead on her kitchen floor, and her high—strung Airedale, Ginger, going ape in the corner. You can't teach an old dog —— or cop —— new tricks, so this homicide has Jack hooked ... especially since poor Ginger seems to be the only witness! In a world of misbehaving mutts and pesky purebreeds, a killer may be waiting to make Jack, Jamie, and their puppy—pals roll over and play dead.

ⓨis is the most perfect book...the mystery is beautifully written, fast—paced and engrossing. What could be better?⟜'97—Delia Ephron, author, screenwriter and producer
