Publisher's summary

Audie Award Winner, Mystery, 2014

Andy Carpenter's accountant, Sam Willis, receives a surprise call from Barry Price, a friend he hasn't spoken to in years. Barry needs Sam's financial acumen and Andy's legal expertise. But when Sam almost runs over an injured dog on the way to Barry's house, he can't drive off without waiting for help. By then, Barry's taken off on a private airplane headed to who-knows-where. Soon after they learn that Barry's plane has crashed, and they come to the terrifying realization that Sam was also supposed to have been killed on that plane. Barry was in far more serious trouble than either of them knew, and for Sam and Andy, the trouble is only beginning.

Fun read; good mystery, hokey ending.

I enjoy the recurring characters, and this followed the usual pattern of earlier books in the series. I like Andy Carpenter's sense of humor, but I'm sure it is not for everybody. This is a better mystery than most, but I found the ending contrived. Still, it was a fun read (listen).

Grover Gardner IS Andy Carpenter!

Grover Gardner improves on a lovable character by having just the right voice to bring him to life. I've devoured this entire series and only truly got the most out of it thanks to the narration. Unfortunately I now have a crush on a fictional character!

LOVE THIS SERIES!!!

OK, So I'm VERY PICKY when it comes to reading/listening to a book (mostly listening). It's got to be a book that grabs me in the beginning and keeps me listening and wanting more until the end. With that said....
First I want to say that the Narrator Grover Gardner was excellent and a pleasure to listen to. He brought the character to life! I'd say he was the perfect choice to narrate this series.!! His voice just draws you in...
It was smartly written. Loved the animals being a big part of the story and refreshing to know that the author and character care so deeply about animals.
I also LOVED the sense of humor the author had when writing these books.(He's gotta have one hell of a sense of humor himself!) I'm typically drawn to people or things that will make me laugh out loud.
This series has ALL the elements that will have people craving more!!
So for people out there looking for a good series.... Take the chance on this series!!! It'll be worth it!!

Keeps your interest!

This was a fun read with dogs, humor, suspense and legal drama. I would have liked it more if it had Corgis, but maybe next time.

Self Deprecating Humor and Mystery Novel

Oh one cannot help but just love the Andy Carpenter series. This series has darling smart dogs, lawyers, judges, cops, investigators, murder, mystery, money, humor, sports, love and sex (millionaire Andy can never get enough from the love of his life, Laurie). The stories are set in Patterson, New Jersey, Andy's childhood home.
Grover Gardner is the perfect narrator, he makes Andy Carpenter come alive; his pitch, cadence and pace make this series a must listen. Mr. Rosenfelt, we await your next Andy, Laurie, Tara and friends story.

I still love Andy.

Andy Carpenter is a dry wit and absolutely charming. This story isn't as strong as the others, and has some serious flaws, but I can read far faster than David Rosenfelt can write. I have enjoyed my time listening and would like again.

Never disappoints

I am so entertained by the Andy Carpenter series, that I must have one book downloaded waiting to listen to, one in my library waiting a download and one in my wish list. Looks like I'm getting to the end, PLEASE NO!!! I love the mystery, love the humor and LOL at the dialog. This book doesn't disappoint.

Another fun and thrilling Andy Carpenter case!

The combination of a funny and suspenseful story by David Rosenfelt and read by Grover Gardner is a wonderful way to pass the time. Looking forward to the next one.
