Publisher's summary

Police officer Megan Luz and her K-9 partner in crime, Brigit, are on all fours as they try to solve their latest Lone Star mystery.

At the zoo

The weather is beautiful, work is slow, and her canine colleague could use a walk. What better day for Megan to take Brigit to the Fort Worth Zoo, where they can let loose and witness the law and order of nature unfold? But what begins as a fun field trip turns serious when a pair of rare hyacinth macaws named Fabiana and Fernando goes missing. Is the new custodian, a gentle soul who happens to be an ex-convict, to blame? Or is something far more sinister afoot?

And on the hunt

The birds are worth thousands of dollars, and the list of people on the premises who might have stolen them is long. Soon, other animals start disappearing...and Megan and Brigit have their hands and paws full of suspects. But when a rare black rhino is taken from the zoo, presumably for its black-market-friendly horn, time is of the essence. Can Megan and Brigit find out who's behind the mystery - before they, too, become prey?

Another winner!

I love this series. The mysteries are light-hearted, without the dark creepy psychos that fill so many modern mysteries. The author thoughtfully weaves an important social issue or two into each book, and for "Paw of the Jungle," it's the illegal trade in exotic wildlife as well as well as the challenges ex-covicts face when they return to society. The narrator is fantastic, a perfect fit. She creates very sympathetic and likeable characters, and she brings to life exactly the right mix of superiority, playfulness, and disdain for human silliness in her voice for Bridget, the K-9 officer. Combined with the author's imaginative views into Bridget's mind, the occasional chapters from Bridget's point of view are pure delight. if you like deep, dark suspense, this probably isn't for you. But if you like to smile and feel happy while you listen, I highly recommend giving these books a try.

Best in the series

I have listened to all of Diane Kelly’s Paw Enforcement series and have thouroughly enjoyed each one. Megan and Bridgette are quite a team. There is the theft of animals at the local zoo and a smaller side mystery. Usually I can’t stand the bad guy, but this time I felt sorry for him and his family. I really wanted him to turn his life around.

The best part of the story is Seth and Megan’s growing relationship. Loved the ending. Diane doesn’t disappoint.

Yet another great canine officer book by Diane Kelly, a must read

I absolutely love this Diane Kelly series about Bridget the officer canine and Megan. From the very first book when she zapped the other guy in the nard‘s with the Tayser all the way to this one. These are all a must read for dog lovers and people that like good mysteries. I would rate this book overall 5.5 stars
