Summary

Summary

"Listening to Grover Gardner narrating a David Rosenfelt novel is like sliding into favorite slippers at the end of a long day: One feels the joyful gratification of a perfect fit." — AudioFile

The next audiobook in David Rosenfelt’s witty, heartfelt mystery series featuring lawyer Andy Carpenter and his faithful golden retriever, Tara.

When defense lawyer Andy Carpenter’s veterinarian asks to speak to him privately at the checkup of his golden retriever, Tara, the last thing Andy expects is Truman. Tiny, healthy, French bulldog Truman was dropped off days ago with instructions to be euthanized by a man everyone thought was his owner. But now the owner is nowhere to be found.

Andy is furious. Who would want to euthanize a perfectly healthy dog with no explanation? He is willing to whisk Truman away to the Tara Foundation, the dog-rescue organization which is Andy’s true passion. They will find a home for Truman. But that’s not all the vet tells Andy. Thanks to Truman’s chip, it’s discovered that the man wasn’t Truman’s owner at all . . . Truman's real owner was murdered.

It’s now up to Andy – with help from his loyal sidekick Tara, Truman and the rest of the gang – to solve this case. In the latest in the popular Andy Carpenter mystery series, David Rosenfelt’s charmingly clever wit and love of dogs are back and better than ever.

Praise for Grover Gardner as Andy Carpenter:

"Grover Gardner's narration of Rosenfelt's whodunits is what good audiobooks are all about...Gardner's delightful portrayal of defense lawyer Andy Carpenter continues to be fresh, allowing listeners to glimpse Andy's soft heart and quick humor." — AudioFile Magazine on Outfoxed

"Gardner's breezy, slightly sarcastic delivery is just what's needed for Rosenfelt's breezy, slightly sarcastic mysteries featuring multimillionaire New Jersey lawyer Andy Carpenter." — PW on Play Dead

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

Bark of Night is a treat, especially for those who love thrillers and dogs.” Associated Press
"Bark of Night is a terrific read for any mystery lover who enjoy twists, turns, and surprises on every page.” Suspense Magazine
“Growing weary of the detective hero with a wrecked marriage, a botched career, and a drinking problem? Try Rosenfelt’s series hero, Andy Carpenter, who is probably as close to Lord Peter Wimsey as the modern American crime genre can get.” Booklist
“Listening to Grover Gardner narrating a David Rosenfelt novel is like sliding into favorite slippers at the end of a long day: One feels the joyful gratification of a perfect fit… Gardner injects the famous defense lawyer with chipper determination and plenty of self-deprecating humor as he is dragged into another case alongside his golden retriever sidekick, Tara…The culprit’s story is told in his own chapters, capably rendered by Gardner in a more masculine but still natural tone. Gardner might just be a dog-loving audiophile’s second-best friend.” AudioFile
“Rosenfelt does a great job of unfolding an intricate plot…Andy is a smart, witty, relatable lead with a lot of heart, and he and his cohorts are a pleasure to spend time with. This is a treat for mystery readers and dog lovers.” Publishers Weekly
