4.0 out of 5 stars Good but doesn't live up to its' predecessor, 29 Sep 1997
By A Customer
Unable to accept that her beloved daughter Lisa, who seemed to have it all, committed suicide, Marsha Jacobs hires private investigator Rachel Alexander to investigate what really happened to her child. Rachel and her pit bull Dash walk the streets of Manhattan in an attempt to learn the truth. Rachel soon receives some sound advice that she heeds from Lisa's former boss, who tells her that in order to learn what happened to the victim, "you must walk in her shoes."

Rachel Lisa soon copies Lisa's lifestyle by adopting all of her activities and even moving into Lisa's apartment. Rachel studies the martial arts at the same dojo that Lisa attended. She joins Lisa's health club and eats in the same Greenwich Village restaurants that the deceased frequented. Rachel begins to understand the victim and concludes a murder did, indeed, occur. However, Rachel has not gotten any closer to uncovering the killer's identity than when she first started on the case.

Readers will enjoy the Rachel and Dash mystery series as the lead protagonists make a charming pair of detectives. The tours of Manhattan are an added bonus and the story line is very exciting. However, THE DOG WHO KNEW TOO MUCH tends to repeat much of the same ground covered by its predecessor (THIS DOG FOR HIRE), thereby leaving readers of the first novel with the feeling that they knew too much going into this tale. Still, Carol Lea Benjamin shows much promise as writer, who, hopefully, will widen her interesting couple's adventures in the next installment.

4.0 out of 5 stars This book really kept you quessing., 13 Nov 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: The Dog Who Knew Too Much (Mass Market Paperback)
I really enjoyed this book. Being a dog lover I thought the book was great! Even if you are not a dog lover though the mystery was very good and it kept you guessing. It didn't spend too much time talking about dogs but just enough for us dog lovers. I have an Akita so that is the reason I read it but now that I did I will definately get other books by this author.

4.0 out of 5 stars Well-written mystery, insight into "dog's world" is a bonus, 19 Feb 1998
By A Customer
The narrator is a female dog-trainer turned private detective. The victim is her cousin, who apparently jumped out the window of the t'ai chi dojo where she was the favored apprentice, and an Akita is witness. Everyone has a motive and opportunity; who did it? The author manages a neat ending without turning the dojo into the center of an international conspiracy to smuggle nuclear weapons or whatever...
