Produktbeschreibungen
From Kirkus Reviews
The first hardcover Conant mystery, custom-groomed for dog people, whose devotion to the canine goes beyond that of mere dog lovers--dog people are those ``who can discuss impacted anal sacs [at a party] without gagging on their Brie.'' The sleuth here is Holly Winter, in a mystery plot one shouldn't worry too much about. It concerns the disappearance of Dr. Oscar Patterson, DVM, who had recommended vet Lee Miner to Holly's vet/inamorato Steve Delaney as a partner in his clinic. It was Dr. Miner (a cold dish of Iams) who'd heard a row between Dr. Paterson and an owner whose dog had just died in the small hours. Is Oscar dead? And where is Jackie Miner, Lee's wife? Featured here is a rare breed, the Chinook, related to the malamute, Holly's chosen breed. The mystery itself wobbles here and there, but the Cambridge, Mass., setting is fun (Harvard at Christmas with super-pipes ``with a range of three notes'' and Morris dances), and the dog talk for the hard-core dog crowd is fine. Come. Sit. Stay. -- Copyright ©1992, Kirkus Associates, LP. All rights reserved.

Pressestimmen
"It is Carmichael’s scenic descriptions of the northern Arizona setting, insider’s peek into the world of therapy pets and loveable characters, both human and otherwise, that make this lighthearted romp worth savoring."

Format:Taschenbuch
if you want to learn something about the Alaskan Malamut read the books of Susan Conant. she writes very entertaining about the everyday life with such great dogs. in addition you get some murder, suspense and mystery
Format:Taschenbuch
"Gone to the Dogs" is the 5th installment in the Holly Winter Mystery Saga, but the first with a new publisher. I like what this publishing change has done for the quality of these books. Conant, always a good writer, has expanded her typical story length by a good hundred pages. This allows her to fill her stories out a little more making the pace and flow of the plotting better.
Diehard mystery fans might be disappointed with the level of mystery in these books. There is a mystery but it isn't that intricate, nor is it approached like a typical mystery novel.
The strength of these books is the information, research, and history given of dogs and show events. When I started this series I never though a dog mystery could be interesting in any way. But like any good author, Conant is able to fuel her passion into her writing getting you caught up in the enthusiasm. I've learned a lot about dogs reading these books, and I've enjoyed every minute of it.
Format:Taschenbuch
Ms. Conant once again outdoes herself with this one. I have read all of her books and this is one of my favorites. This is an excellent read for mystery buffs as well as dog lovers.
