Product description...

Who Would Dognap a Pup?

What is chutzpah? Dictionary.com gives as synonyms “nerve” and “audacity.” The word is Yiddish, and its roots go back to Aramaic, the language spoken by Jesus Christ. The dog in the book’s title, Lady, has chutzpah. She is a canine force of nature. When her first owner, “the old man,” dies, pregnant Lady, then temporarily at the Riverview Animal Shelter, becomes the pet of criminologist Alice, a woman with a full supply of audacity herself. Her husband, Art, is the RAS veterinarian. Before leaving RAS, Lady gives birth to two pups, and Alice and Art and daughter Katie adopt both Lady and one puppy, Princess. Soon Alice would have a crime puzzle: from RAS, someone steals Lady’s brother. Who would dognap a pup? And why?
