Dog's Waiting Room

Golden Retriever Mysteries, Book 13

By: Neil S. Plakcy

Narrated by: Kelly Libatique

Two parents die and two families mourn, in very different ways.

Amateur sleuth Steve Levitan and his clue-sniffing golden retriever Rochester face two deaths in the 12th full-length novel in this long-running series. An Alzheimer’s patient slips away from home on his own and tumbles into the Delaware River. And then Steve’s love Lili suffers the crushing loss of her mother in a Miami Beach hospital.

Eckhardt Lalor left behind a fortune in real estate, a fractured family, and a bitter legacy as a city slumlord. Does that add up to murder? There’s no question of what killed Benita Weinstock — a dodgy heart — but her death rocks her daughter’s world, and Steve’s.

It will be up to Rochester to solve the crime and heal his humans in this new mystery with heart — and fur.

5 stars

Like the other books in this series, Dog's Waiting Room is well written with engaging and realistic characters and an entertaining plot. I look forward to the next book in this series.

Dog's Waiting Room

The book is OK. I'm still looking for another Michael Connelly this author is a filler. The narrator is easy to sleep to. But watch future books 20-22 that are narrated by "Steve Stewart's voice replica (Narrator)". Not sure what this means but can you say no feeling.
