The More the Terrier - David Rosenfelt

 The More the Terrier - David Rosenfelt

She read

A lost dog showing up on Andy and Laurie’s doorstep leads to him defending a college student accused of killing one of his professors.  As Andy and crew investigate, they find ties to the Russian mob as well as evil players in the metaverse. 

This is the 30th in the mystery/legal thriller series featuring the irascible but somehow charming Paterson, New Jersey based attorney Andy Carpenter. Independently wealthy, he and his wife, a retired member of the police department, operate the Tara Foundation for rescue dogs. Surrounded by a support system of colorful characters to assist, Andy takes on occasional legal cases when he thinks the accused is innocent.  

This installment has a decent, well paced plot. What I really enjoy about Rosentfelt’s writing is the humor spread throughout his stories, especially Andy’s snarky wit. This is one of the few series I have ever read (and I have read many) that always has me laughing out loud. This is a book that is a mystery, legal thriller, and comedic. What more could you ask?

As an aside, for those unfamiliar with David Rosenfelt…in real life he and his wife do have a Tara Foundation for rescue dogs. They have rescued thousands of dogs. How can you not love this author?
