Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Defense lawyer Andy Carpenter takes on a cold case when the suspected murderer turns out to be the man who saved his beloved dog. Five years ago, Matt Starks’ drug addiction cost him his family, his job, everything. As bad off as he was, he could still tell that he was no longer able to care for Tara, the golden retriever puppy he had rescued and nursed back to health, so he took her to the shelter, which is where defense lawyer Andy Carpenter found her. Now, Matt has turned his life around. He’s working as a counselor at the rehab clinic that saved him, and he has gotten his family back. Everything has been made right. That’s until the police show up with charges of murder. Five years ago, a college student and daughter of a prominent businessman was killed in a fire. At the time, scientific techniques weren’t sound enough to test the DNA and get conclusive results. But now they are, and the findings point right at Matt. Ellen, his wife, can’t lose him again. Without the money to hire a top lawyer, she goes to Andy, but is there anything that he can do to save the man who saved Tara? Andy will have to pull out all of his tricks, both old and new, to get to the bottom of this cold case turned white hot in the latest in David Rosenfelt’s popular mystery series. Review:"In Rosenfelt's winning ninth Andy Carpenter legal thriller (after Dog Tags), Paterson, N.J.'s most reluctant defense attorney agrees to defend recovering drug addict Noah Galloway, who's been arrested for setting a fire six years earlier that killed 26 people. Andy and Noah have two important connections: Noah tried to break into Andy's house about a year before the arson incident, and Noah was the original owner of Tara, Andy's beloved golden retriever. Though Noah remembers nothing about the fire, he tells Andy he's guilty. With Noah resigned to a life behind bars without parole, Andy does his usual sterling — and amusing — performance in the courtroom to stall for time. The colorful supporting cast provides some unusual assists: incurable pessimist Hike Lynch starts to look on the bright side; semiliterate Willie Miller decides to write a book; accountant and computer expert Sam Willis becomes a gun-packing field agent for Andy. The zany plot, despite its improbabilities, will keep readers turning the pages. (July)" Publishers Weekly Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved.
