Story
Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing as an average woman. But it’s the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute takes a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans; the lonely, brilliant, Nobel–prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with—of all things—her mind. True chemistry results.

After Tova Sullivan’s husband died, she began working the night shift at the Sowell Bay Aquarium, mopping floors and tidying up. Keeping busy has always helped her cope, which she’s been doing since her eighteen-year-old son, Erik, mysteriously vanished on a boat in Puget Sound over thirty years ago. Tova becomes acquainted with curmudgeonly Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus living at the aquarium. Marcellus knows more than anyone can imagine but wouldn’t dream of lifting one of his eight arms for his human captors—until he forms a remarkable friendship with Tova.

Karen Fine always knew that she wanted to be a vet and wasn't going to let anything stop her: not her allergy to cats, and not the fact that in the '80s veterinary medicine was still a mostly male profession. Inspired by her grandfather, a compassionate doctor who paid house calls to all his (human) patients, Dr. Fine persevered, and brought her Oupa's principles into her own practice, which emphasizes the need to understand her patients’ stories to provide the best possible care.

Publisher's summary
Dr. Cyrus Mills returns to his hometown after inheriting his father's failing veterinary practice. Cyrus intends to sell the practice and get out of town as fast as he can, but when his first patient - a down-on-her-luck golden retriever named Frieda Fuzzypaws - wags her way through the door, life suddenly gets complicated.
With the help of a black Labrador gifted in the art of swallowing underwear, a Persian cat determined to expose her owner's lover as a gold digger, and the allure of a feisty, pretty waitress from the local diner, Cyrus gets caught up in a new community and its endearing residents, both human and animal. Sensing he may have misjudged the past, he begins to realize it's not just his patients that need healing.
The Patron Saint of Lost Dogs is a winsome tale of new beginnings, forgiveness, and the joy of finding your way home.

On the edge of the Northern Atlantic lies a remote island. The islanders are an outwardly harmonious community—but all have their own secrets, some much darker than others. And when a strange disorder begins to infect them all, those secrets come to light. Ferry service fails and contact with the mainland is lost. Rumors begin to swirl as a temporary inconvenience grows into nightmarish ordeal. The fabric of the once tight-knit island is unnervingly torn apart—and whatever the cause, the question soon stops being how or why it happened, but who, if anyone, will survive.

The story is not your typical murder mystery. The sleuth is not a detective, private eye, or lawyer. He's an ordinary guy with an extraordinary dog. Jacob Martin is trying to make the best of a divorce and mid-life crisis when he gets a call at two o'clock Sunday morning from his mother. His sister has been arrested for the murder of her fourth husband, and his father is near death. Thus begins an adventure that takes Jake and his golden retriever from their Colorado retreat to a backwater town in the Missouri Ozarks.

Story
I was twenty-nine-years-old when the Arno flooded its banks on Friday, November 4, 1966. On Tuesday I decided to go to Italy, to offer my services as a humble book conservator, to save whatever could be saved, including myself. The Italians called them "Mud Angels," the young foreigners who came to Florence in 1966 to save the city's treasured art from the Arno's flooded banks. American volunteer Margot Harrington was one of them, finding her niche in the waterlogged library of a Carmelite convent. Within its walls she discovered a priceless Renaissance masterwork: a sensuous volume of sixteen erotic poems and drawings.

Telemarketer Vanessa Blair isn't in love with her job. It pays the bills and feeds her foster kittens but offers only one other perk: her friendships with Jane Delaney and Trisha Lam. But, as mind-numbing as her job is, things are about to get worse. Xavier Adams, her self-absorbed boss, calls Vanessa into the conference room and fires her. The reason? Her facial expressions. Apparently, her resting bitch face is awake, and it doesn't matter that her sales numbers are stellar or that she organizes office events.

The book I wish I'd written
What about Peter Berkrot’s performance did you like?
Peter Berkrot's performance was outstanding
Any additional comments?
I had never heard of Nick Trout before I purchased this book as a Kindle and an Audible. What a lucky find! This is the best new author I've read since I discovered Jodi Taylor a couple years back. Full of heart (human and pet), emotional intelligence, wit, humor, insight, solid writing, and suspense. An unqualified five stars!

Narration took away from a good story
The narrator performs an accent that is distinctly not Vermont, for characters who are supposed to be in Vermont. It was distracting.

Dr. Trout is a great writer!
I enjoyed so much about this heartwarming stories. I cannot wait to listen to the next one!
I listened to Dr. Trout’s other two books about his own life and career as a veterinarian, and this is the first fictional story of his I listened to. It is the same level of mastery of beautiful story line and language. I love Dr. Trout’s books.

A superbly engaging tale!
I was eased into this wonderful book from the first line. Along the way, I laughed out loud, cried and was fantastically well entertained from start to finish as Nick Trout rolled out this heartwarming and thoroughly engaging story that left me wanting for more.

Wonderful from the first word to the last!
Having been a dog owner for over 40 years I related to many of the clients in this book. I sympathized with the break in the relationship between Cyrus and his father and wish that they could’ve had a better relationship while he was growing up. He moved me to tears more than once. So grateful for his change of heart and for Lewis bringing that out in him.
I felt the characters were well-developed, the story connected and its appeal to human emotion unchallenged.

ENJOYED VERY MUCH!
I was in need of something less daunting with some fun added in to lighten my drives - this book was perfect. I love good books about or with dogs/animals, however it also needs to be a good story to keep my attention. This is all of the above - I'm very much hoping Mr. Trout continues this series and I hope he gets # 3 out quickly! As soon as I finished this book I immediately went and used my very last credit to get #2 - sadly I just finished it and there is no # 3 at this point. So.... if you'd like a good book with some mystery, some romance, a lot of humor and some old town charm - along with dogs/animals - you'll like this book - go ahead,, enjoy.

Veterinary medicine with a heart
I really enjoyed this novel about a man who finally figured out that he was supposed to be a vet. Throw in a few cats and dogs and I am totally happy.

surprised
Thank you to Audible for adding this title to your "free for members" collection -- neither of my libraries carries it, and I'd been wanting to read it.
This story is not at all what I expected -- although it is set in a veterinary practice, it is more about people than pets. (Although the client 's pets do play a role in the plot.) It's about relationships: family and townspeople. And it's about forgiveness.
Trigger warning: the opening scene upset me and I almost stopped listening, but the tone quickly changes and I'm glad that I powered through that chapter.
The narrator's voice was a little irritating to me. Perhaps it was supposed to be a Carolina drawl? I had to listen at 1.2 speed. But, by the end, I had adjusted.

Dogs good, people and plot lacking
This plot might have worked in outline, but then it appears the outline got lost. The story wanders in search of its redemptive narrative, which is imposed instead of earned. We never learn essential things, such as, what the vet did or didn't do to get his license revoked, what his dad didn't do right to deserve all this alienation and how the false premises trick ever worked on anybody.
Plus, somebody who takes a child's pet to the vet to be put to sleep on the sly and lets the child and mother search for it afterward deserves a punishment. Some punishment. At least shame. Add blackmail to his crimes. I hung in with the story, hoping the writer would grind this person into the dirt, but no. The person capable of such wrongdoing will do it again.
The dogs are lovely, and well described, but they can't save this bumbling tale. Besides the animals and one great little girl, I didn't believe any of it.
