Acerca de esta escucha

From the internationally best-selling author of My Lovely Wife and He Started It comes a twisted, entertaining novella about a dog walker swept into a criminal investigation when her client winds up dead.

Shelby works as a dog walker in northern California, and she’s just finished up her bi-weekly trip to the park with a husky named Pluto. When she brings him back to his house, she finds his owner - Todd Burke, a well-known local businessman and founder of an organic supplements company - lying on the bathroom floor, dead. A detective arrives on the scene. As she interviews Shelby, the body is inspected by a medical examiner, and more cops search Todd’s home, it becomes clear that the victim’s life was less picture-perfect than his clean-cut persona might lead you to believe.

Dear Listener,

What inspired me to write this story?
" Sleeping Dogs Lie was inspired by my brother, who owns a dog walking/sitting company. He used to tell me I should write about a dog walker, so I finally did! Although I currently live in New Orleans, he lives in Marin County, California, the same area where the story takes place. Marin is also where I grew up. Back then it was a sleepy little suburb, but the Silicon Valley explosion changed all that! Now when I visit, it’s filled with tech employees, organic restaurants, and people who are a lot like the characters of Todd and Regina Burke. All the places in the story are real—the shopping center, the coffee shop locations, the dog park, and even the subdivision of Bel Marin Keys. I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed writing it!" – Samantha Downing, creator of Sleeping Dogs Lie

Short & to the point.

Good story. The performances were great. Interesting. Decent plot. I might check out more by this author. Things, they’re not what they seem.

Wow! More than exceeded my expectations!

What a wonderful story! I picked up this book on a whim, expecting absolutely nothing. To say that I am pleasantly surprised is an understatement. This was an awesome short story! If you're in the mood for a short fast listen-to then I highly recommend this book. It's not until the last 30 minutes that you realize who done it. The story never lags or gets boring and keeps you guessing all the way to the end. I absolutely love it and plan to read more by the same author. HIghly recommed to anyone who loves a good mystery, a good whodunit story, and it to anyone who loves dogs.

Great story!

I really enjoyed this novella. I was pretty surprised as I usually prefer to listen/read long books/series/trilogies/etc. If you love animals or are involved in rescue this story will bring a smile to your face (: The performance was good as well. If you are an animal person and have a few hours to listen give this story a try, I think you will enjoy it too.

Short and sinister

Enjoyed this novella's narration as much as I did the story. Their pace and delivery was on point. The story packs a few twists and turns and was an easy listen. Just what I needed for the day.

Great Short Story!

Best compliment I can give to this short book is that I immediately looked for more books by this author. The narrators were excellent too.

Original and ingenious

I loved this story. It was original, offbeat yet plausible, and engrossing. I was almost at the end before I figured out what had happened, but even then, I did not guess what the motive had been. I also felt that the author “played fair” — there were no crucial details pulled out of thin air at the end. Finally, I was surprised that I wound up kind of liking the perpetrator. My only complaint is that I couldn’t stop listening and so finished the story sooner than I wanted to.
