In Rescued, David Rosenfelt again delights his
readers with the charm and wit they’ve come to expect. Even
the most fervent fans of the sardonic Andy Carpenter and his
team will be enthralled by this latest case, where the
stakes have never been higher.
Defense lawyer Andy Carpenter is reluctant to take on any
more cases. He’d much rather spend his time working for his
dog rescue organization, the Tara Foundation, than find
himself back in a courtroom. However, when a truck carrying
over seventy dogs from the South to the rescue-friendly
northeast turns up with a murdered driver, Andy can’t help
but get involved.
Of course Andy is eager to help the dogs, many of whom come
to the Tara Foundation while awaiting forever homes – it’s
the man accused of murder who he has a problem defending.
The accused just happens to be his wife Laurie’s ex-fiance;
her tall, good looking, ex-Marine ex-fiance. Even though he
acknowledges having argued with the victim, he swears that
he is not a killer, and though he would rather not, Andy has
to admit he believes he's telling the truth.
For Andy, even with dozens of successful cases behind him,
this case that his wife insists he take may prove to be his
most difficult.
