I enjoyed this book. It kept me entertained. I did not pick out the killer in this one. Over a good read. Now to wait for the next one or read his other series.

I really enjoyed this quick mystery novel. I have not yet read the first two books in the series, but I do do plan to go back and read them after finishing this book. The main character Corey has a lovable GSD named Simon. They are both retired from the police force. They have been hired by the police department to help investigate a cold case that turns out is personal for another member of the investigation team, Laurie. Due to this fact, we learn a little about their past. I really enjoy the relationship between Corey and Simon. They are a great pair.
The mystery has some twists and turns. Throughout the investigation we are introduced to a lot of characters that can sometimes make keeping track of everyone a bit complicated. The end is tied up nicely. Overall the writing is good. The narrator also did a good job with this book. I would give this a solid 4 stars. Thanks to NetGalley, Macmillan Audio, and Minotaur Books for the advanced audio copy of this book in exchange for my honest review!

I thought that the book did a good job by intriguing me by the synopsis for the book. I’m a lover of pets, so adding Simon to the book was a plus. Corey’s character sort of reminded me of a tv detective. He was laid back, but he took notice to everything around him. His partners seemed to have that dry humor about them. I felt that the book was a slow burner book. It took a few chapters to get to the entertaining part of the story. The book is written in that second person narrative, which confused me sometimes, because I didn’t know if it was another person speaking or if it was Corey.

A quick easy read. But I like the characters and the narrator better in the Andy Carpenter books. I will keep reading all the K-team but not with the same enjoyment I get from Andy.
