review 1: I've read the second book in the series and loved it so when I saw this free little story I just had to scoop it up. It's more of a vignette that gives one of the secondary characters in the series a chance at the limelight. I enjoyed this and look forward to seeing more from Barbara Hewett in the series after getting to know her better in this one. As short as this was, it was able to draw the setting, tease out the characters and offer a good strong plot. Well done to the author on that. Now I am eager to pick up more of the little stories the author wrote about the side characters of the series and move along with the main novels.
review 2: Really if you have seen Rear Window you don't need to read this... it is inspired by it or it is a really weird co
... moreincidence. There's the window, there's a howling (instead of yapping and digging) dog (though this time it doesn't die) and there's a place where the friends hero thinks a body is buried (like the garden in Rear Window). Well, yeah, watch Rear Window... the plot gets way better and like I said this short-story has a lot in common with it. less
