About this listen

Baking. It can get a guy killed.

When a retired detective superintendent chooses to take a culinary tour of the British Isles, he hopes to find tasty treats and delicious bakes.…

…What he finds is murder, mayhem, and mystery everywhere he goes.

His dog, Rex Harrison, a former police dog fired for having a bad attitude, does his best to steer the humans in the right direction, but he cannot understand why they don’t just use their noses–the answers are right there if they would just employ their strongest sense!

However, solving a few mysteries won’t get them out of trouble, for there is a master criminal behind many of the crimes they encounter, and they’ve just caught his attention.

Their adventure is getting deadlier with every destination, but these two sleuths are not going to be put off. With Rex’s keen sense of smell and Albert’s decades of experience as a detective, this pair are on the trail.

Or are they being lured into a trap?

One thing is for certain, they had better figure it out soon or they might be the next victims.

A charmingly funny and captivating mystery!

I listen to audio books for years and when my husband watches his bang bang shoot-em-up shows, I just put on a book and my ear buds. This week he was questioning my sanity as I cracked up listening. I haven't enjoyed anything as much in years. I've laughed out loud and cheered exuberantly as these unlikely heroes saved the day again and again.

Interaction between dog and man

Like humor dog comments about human limitations while also being loyal to “his human”. Also, enjoying reading about old man seeking adventure and personal growth even as his children both loved him and feared for his safety.

Wonderful character

I really enjoyed these stories. Rex and his attitude towards his human were great. I liked Albert Smith and the way he just happens upon crimes that need solving. I hope there will be more capers in the future.

Thoroughly enjoy LOL joy

I love the storyline especially the interaction of Albert and Rex and their growth as companions. I haven't laughed out loud in a long time while listening or reading a book.

Funny and delicious

For anyone familiar with Melton Mowbray, Bakewell, York, Blackpool as well as the taste of pork pie, stilton, Bakewell tart (pudding), these are delightfull stories that bring back memories and revive the taste buds. Albert and Rex are two characters drawn from real life, so reminiscent of folks we used to know and dogs who have gone before. Cannot wait to read the next episodes.

Great Story!

Love the connection between man and dog. Getting the dog's point of view was entertaining and very plausible.

58 hours to go

I'm only two stories in with 58+ hours to go and just loving.it. What a great find! Very entertaining, light, humorous, and even thought provoking. Well done!
