Publisher's Weekly Review

Dog fans will lap up Susan Conant's The Dogfather, in which series sleuth Holly Winter (The Wicked Flea, etc.) reluctantly agrees to train mob boss Enzio Guarini's four-month-old Elkhound puppy. When someone bumps off Guarini's right-hand man, Holly realizes she might've done better to roll over and play dead than to accept a training job she couldn't refuse. (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC.
