David Rosenfelt loves dogs and it shows. His character, Andy Carpenter, tries to save a Golden Retriever from certain death by going to court and getting the jurors to root for the underdog (no pun intended).

It soon comes to light that this dog is dead according to court records and that his owner is serving a life sentence for killing his girlfriend. Andy, who is an extraordinarily lazy lawyer, jumps on the bandwagon to save the dogs owner.

This plot is clever, funny and fast paced. Its sure to interest any reader who likes dogs and lazy lawyers (in that order).
