Laying Down the Paw (Paw Enforcement Series #3)

by Diane Kelly Narrated by Coleen Marlo

Overview

When a raging tornado hits Forth Worth, Megan's squad car is flipped over-and her devoted police dog, Brigit, is not amused. But that's not all that's upside down. The streets are littered with looters-and members of a violent street gang-and no local business is safe. It's time to get back on all fours and see that the job of protecting the public is done.



But Megan, outmanned and outgunned, has no choice but to let the gang members get away. Later, when she learns that one of them is a suspect in an unsolved murder case, Megan is determined to see that justice is served. But will she end up in the doghouse? Her investigation has her and Brigit barking up the wrong tree at every turn. Meanwhile, a killer's on the loose . . . who will stop at nothing to get what he wants.

Fort Worth police officer Megan Luz, with K-9 partner, Brigit, has ambitions of making detective, yet when she arrives at a murder scene, she loses her breakfast quickly. Still, Det. Audrey Jackson is willing to work with Luz as the investigation unfolds. In between finding a new place to live that will accept her canine helper, dating a fireman, and assisting Jackson, life is rather full for Luz. When a tornado hits Fort Worth, and she is confronted by an armed gang of teenagers, her situation gets even more complex. VERDICT Kelly's sassy third installment (after Paw and Order) is another lighthearted, engaging adventure. Like Spencer Quinn's canine narrator Chet, the reader hears from Brigit, which adds to the fun. A strong suggestion for fans of Susan Conant's dog mysteries. Readers who feel the loss of Lee Martin's "Fort Worth" police series featuring Deb Ralston or who are devoted to Susan McBride's "Texas Deb" books will also be thrilled.
