Description

Pru Marlowe isn't your ordinary animal psychic. A tough girl on the run from her own gift, Pru left the big city to return to her picturesque Berkshires hometown looking for a little peace. Too bad her training as an animal behaviorist got her mixed up with Lily, a rescue dog, and Charles, the dog's guardian. Now Charles is dead, and Lily appears to be headed for the same end, for Lily is a pit bull, a fighting-ring dropout, and is far too traumatized to give Pru a clear picture of what she has witnessed. But Pru knows something about bad girls trying to clean up, and, with a sense of justice strong enough to overcome her dislike of human society, she takes the case.

Listening to the animals, Pru picks up clues and learns there are secrets in the pretty little town that make murder look simple. Unable to tell anyone about her psychic abilities, and uncertain at times about her own sanity, Pru comes to realize that if she clears Lily, she'll likely become the prime suspect—or the next victim. While the only creature she can totally trust is her crotchety tabby cat, Wallis, Pru must uncover the real killer—and find a way to live with her gift—before the real beasts in the town maul her and those she has come to love.

        February 14, 2011
        This fluffy first in a new series from Simon (Mr. Grey) introduces Pru Marlowe, an almost certified pet behaviorist/animal trainer, who to her dismay developed "the ability to hear what animals are ‘saying' " as the result of an illness while a student in New York City. Back home in the Berkshire town of Beauville, Pru scrapes by with pet training jobs and referrals from Doc Sharp, the local veterinarian. When Pru's computer geek client, Charles Harris, is fatally mauled, apparently by his pit bull, Tetris, Pru is determined to keep the "killer dog," whom she renames Lily, from being euthanized and prove that a two-legged critter was the real killer. Her clever 13-year-old tabby, Wallis, provides snarky paws-on assistance. Pru can come across as pompous at times, but she's no slouch as a detective. Fans of Blaize Clement and Carole Nelson Douglas will be pleased.
