Hounding the Pavement (Dog Walker, Bk 1)

Helpful Score: 1


HANDS-DOWN one the absolute cutest cozy mysteries Ive read in quite some time. Filled with humor, mystery, and the back and forth squabbeling of a new love forming, Judi McCoy has created a one of a kind series that will leave the reader begging for more. I enjoyed this book very much and appreciated the fact it was read by both the main characters, Ellie and Sam. It reminded me of the writing style of Vicki Lewis Thompson: Blonde with a Wand. The conversations with the animals were at some points, quite histerical.

Without any real explanation of how it can happen, Ellie discovers she can hear the thoughts of her dog Rudy (with whom she was reunited with after he died years ago) Newly divorced, shes taken up the business of dogwalking in Manhatten, where its a cut-throat business in the dog walking industry.

Ellie's life is turned upside down when she discovers one of her clients dead in his apartment and the police show up at the scene of the crime, and his little Westminster Champion bichon, Buddy is missing. If only the police and sexy detective Sam Ryder would listen to her: Find the dog, find the killer.
