For those of you who anticipate a lot of canine contact in this first book in a series, I need to let you down gently. There isn't. Oh, there is some, and it's choice, but author Kylie Logan is more intent on setting her stage in The Scent of Murder than she is in letting us enjoy the working dogs. By book's end, you can see that future books will be giving readers a more immersive experience, and I'm certainly looking forward to it.

Jazz had a past love affair with the lead detective on the case that I found to be more a hindrance than a help. I liked the way it was dealt with at the end; I just hope it was with finality. Something else that Jazz will have to deal with in the future is her abrasive approach to questioning people. She seems to know the perfect way to antagonize people, and that's not just counter-productive, it's downright dangerous.

All in all, I think this is a good start to the series, and I'm looking forward to more. Let the dogs out!
