Flop Dead Gorgeous

An Andy Carpenter Mystery

By: David Rosenfelt

Narrated by: Grover Gardner

"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 on Bark of Night

Lights, camera, action in bestselling author David Rosenfelt’s Flop Dead Gorgeous, as Andy Carpenter goes bicoastal to prove an old friend’s innocence.

Retired lawyer Andy Carpenter remembers every dog that’s come through the Tara Foundation’s doors, but the most well-known alum of the dog rescue organization that Andy founded in Paterson, New Jersey, may be Mamie. Adopted by famous actress Jenny Nichols—Andy’s high school girlfriend—the miniature French poodle is now practically a starlet in her own right.

Andy doesn’t hold it against his friend. In fact, he and his wife, Laurie, have dinner with Jenny while she’s in town filming her next big hit. But after an eventful meal, there’s a plot twist the next morning that none of them see coming: Jenny’s costar is found dead, a knife in his back. It’s not long before Jenny is arrested for the murder and finds herself in need of Andy’s legal services.

While Mamie becomes reacquainted with Tara, Andy’s golden retriever, Andy digs into the lives of the rich and famous.

Critic reviews

“Witty, well-paced. . . a treat for fans. Rarely does a series this long-running still feel so fresh.” –Publishers Weekly

Great Andy Read

It was a good story and Grover’s narration is always very welcome. I can’t wait for the next one!

Excellent as always

Andy Carpenter stories are an excellent way to spend time. All stories are great. Unlike some series, these get better with each new story. I recommend you start at the beginning

Love this series …

David Rosenfelt has achieved the perfect flippant yet wonderful main character… Andy Carpenter. The Best!!!!

Another winner

As always, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. One of my favorite moments was when Andy was talking to Pete on the phone. Pete could stand Andy's attitude no longer. "Click." I love Andy's flippant sarcasm
