Publisher's summary

Melanie Travis has her hands full these days, what with adding a husband and three more dogs to her already cramped home. The advanced obedience training for her dog Faith is a welcome respite from the stresses of house hunting - until murder forces Melanie to the head of the class. Even amidst the chaos, Melanie somehow manages to eke out a bit of time to get Faith enrolled in "school". The South Avenue Obedience Club looks like fun, even if there are enough sexual and political undercurrents in the group to power a small generator. Melanie is especially eager to bring Faith to the program at the Winston Pumpernill Nursing Home. Club member Paul Lennox initiated the outings to please his Great Aunt Mary, and since many of the other residents are also dog lovers, the trips are now a treasured tradition. Melanie and Faith are warmly welcomed at the home, but their very first visit ends in tragedy when Aunt Mary is found suffocated in her bed. There's no shortage of suspects - from the wealthy victim's ne'er-do-well son to the staff to the secret-laden club members themselves, there's motive and opportunity aplenty. All Melanie has to do is follow the trail - and watch her back.

Narrator

Loved the book. Another great Travis
mystery but the narrator has a very irritating voice.

super

Great fun trying to figure out who the killer is. The killer is always a minor character in the first part of the book. Always with a hidden motive. Very relaxing story.

Amazing!

From beginning to end the author had my attention! I fully see myself as the main character with every twist and turn of the story!

Obnoxious Narrator

This audiobook would have received five stars in all areas, but, the narrator was so bad, I had to reduce the speed to .85 in order to comfortably listen to the story. Her voice was extremely high pitched and annoyingly rapid . . . Like listening to an obnoxious and odious child with rapid diarrhea of the mouth . . . Reducing the speed to .85 helped, however, if I see the name of this narrator again, I will pass on purchasing the audiobook.
