Dog Eat Dog by David Rosenfelt

 

                                                  Dog Eat Dog by David Rosenfelt-298 pages

Lawyer Andy Carpenter and his wife Laurie are once again pulled into a case simply because a man has come to the defense of a dog.  Andy has been trying to retire for several years; but as usual this is a case he just cannot turn down.  

I have followed this series since the beginning.  David Rosenfelt is even a bigger dog lover than I am.  But it is his dry wit and humor that is unrivaled.  And the supporting characters are hilarious on their own. I eagerly await each one that is released.

Under Currents by Nora Roberts

Under Currents by Nora Roberts - 436 pages

Zane Bigelow seemingly has the perfect family -- surgeon father, stay at home mother, and loving sister.  But beneath the surface there are the undercurrents of abuse.  Then one terrible night everything blows up.  Now, years later, he is returning to town and meets Darby who has knowledge of undercurrents herself.  Will they be able to face the past together to survive them.

This is the latest by Nora Roberts.  I enjoyed it.  It stretched the imagination a little that one couple would endure so much violence in their lives.  Still, I really enjoyed the book.
