An Andy Carpenter mystery, 18Thorndike Press large print core

"It's Christmas season, and seeing a dog next to a homeless man inspires lawyer Andy Carpenter to give the pair some money. Soon after Andy's encounter with them, man and dog are attacked in the street; the dog defends its new owner, and the attacker is bitten but escapes. The dog is quarantined and the man, Don Carrigan, is heartbroken. Andy's wife Laurie can't resist helping the duo, and in a matter of days Don and his dog Zoey are living above Andy's garage. It's not until Andy accidentally gives away his guest's name during an interview that he finds out Don is wanted for a murder that happened two years ago. Don claims he's innocent-- and he has no knowledge of the crime the first place. It's up to Andy to exonerate his new friend... if he doesn't get pulled into the quagmire first." -- Adapted from publisher information
