wonderful

i have become a big fan of allie's after reading this book-for any dog lover mystery fan its a must. not only is it entertaining but its informative in learning how to handle the different behavior problems in your dog. i've just started 'ruff way to go' and i hope these are just just the beginning of a long line of books based on this character.

A doggone good mystery!

I just discovered this author, and she writes a sparkling mystery with very clever dialogue. It is fast moving and full of ideas on dog training (I learned to stop my dog from barking at the TV!) Leslie O'Kane's writing is really much better than most "lite" mysteries; her characters seem very real. This is the first in a series on Ally Babcock, canine therapist, and I'm looking forward to more. Perfect summer reading!

My two favorite things, a good mystery and a good dog.

What a great surpires to find a good mystery that includes a quirky pet psychologist, lots of lovable dogs and an odd combination of murder suspects. Add to this the author's delightful sense of humor and you have a very enjoyable read. I can't wait for Leslie O'Kane's next book in this series.

Interesting mystery for dog lovers

This mystery had a plot that kept me guessing until the end. It also had lots of tips for training dogs and insights into a dog's eye-view of life. Allida Babcock is likeable and believeable. I look forward to her next mystery.

Start of new series proves O'Kane is a master

PLAY DEAD includes a warm protagonist who loves dogs more than people. The secondary characters, mostly lovable canines, add warmth and excitement to this unique mystery. Genre fans will want to read the debut Babcock book, which has the feel of a best seller.Harriet Klausner END
