He reads Proust. Surfs the net. Is the soul of diplomacy.
And when it comes to solving crime,
Randolph is the dog for the job.

Murder has come to Manhattan’s East Village. And when detectives call twenty-something artist Harry to the scene, his Labrador, Randolph, instantly smells a rat. Why? Because Harry’s missing almost-fiancée—and Randolph’s beloved mistress—has been implicated in the murder, which has ties to the U.N. While Harry looks to the spirit world for answers, careening between terror and wild hope that Imogen is alive, Randolph goes into detective mode, using his superior Lab brain—2.3 pounds of smoothly functioning gray matter—to surf the Net, track down clues, and even land a job as a “therapy” dog to a depressed diplomat. Suddenly the brainy, book-loving Lab has done the impossible: he’s penetrated the shadowy corridors of the U.N. (which boasts the most vicious, backbiting dog run in the city) in search of a killer. Now it will take all of Randolph’s cunning to protect Harry, clear Imogen’s name, solve the crime—and stay alive long enough to enjoy his upcoming birthday.

Passing it along

A MOST unexpected catch for me! I was browsing the shelves at our church Thrift Shop (looking for animal books, as a matter of fact, for the 2019 animal release challenge), when I saw this one and pulled it out - and saw BC labeling! And now I see that it was released in 2013 for the same challenge. I love it. And will send it along for some more travels this month.

Left on a table along the row of shops.

Released as part of the 2019 You're Such an Animal release challenge AND please read the journal entries where you can see that it was released for this same challenge in 2013 by another bookcrosser!

To the finder: I hope you enjoy finding this book as much as I did releasing it!
