Molly Madison is an ex-cop who has moved from Massachusetts to California after her philandering husband was murdered and she was a suspect, apparently the subject of the first book in the series. This second book features her and her golden retriever named Harlow and her more newly acquired Saint Berdoodle named Noodle at a training facility for dog agility and barn hunting. Noodle finds not only a rat in a barn, but also a dead body - the body of Celeste, a woman who was so unpleasant that it was hard to decide who had the best motive and opportunity to kill her. Molly gets into the investigation when her newest human friend, Felicity, is arrested for the murder.
I learned a lot about the training of dogs, about girls' gymnastics, and also about people who have trouble socializing. I liked Molly's character - she's got a heart of gold for animals and likes humans *almost* as much, but is not afraid to let people know what she's thinking.
