Very short. About 2h on Audible. Good as a segway book. A little predictable but still quite interesting to read. I sadly know someone who would have the same fate as Todd... a nice one to read if you like dogs.

It was what I've come to expect from Samantha Downing, just in a condensed form.

A quick short story between other reads. It was engaging with some good twists. But… was this written by a dog with something against humans? I love dogs (4 on my bed as I write this), but the ending was a bit strange.

Short Audible thriller about a dog walker who discovers the owner dead in their bathroom. Not bad, but a bit underdeveloped and forgettable. The twist was unexpected, but also weird. I feel that with a twist like that the main character needed a bit more backstory and context. Worth a couple of hours of your time, as it delivers exactly what it set to do, but will not change your life in any way.
