I was interested in this series because some of the books later in the series seem to indicate that this about a lawyer and his dog, a golden retriever, because the books have images of a golden retriever on the cover. Open and Shut does not have an image of a dog on the front cover. (although some of reprints in paperback do have the dog)

This book is the first book written by David Rosenfelt, and the first in this series. David Rosenfelt used to a marketing president for Tristar pictures. I am glad he gave up that gig for writing.

You can read a book summary elsewhere, but the question remains, is this book worth your time? Oh yes, not only is our writer very humorous, but the mystery in well done. All the books in this series are Wishlisted here on paperbackswaps at this time so there seems to be many readers interested in this series.

I can not wait to read more and find out if the great writing continues, and if the dog plays more of a roll in the future which would explain the dog on the cover of the other books. I read somewhere that David Rosenfelt and his wife have made huge contributions to animal welfare, so I am gathering the dog does play a bigger role.
