5 out of 5 stars A real page-turner! I couldn't put it down!!   April 29, 1999

I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves dogs, the south, and fiesty heroines. This is the first Virginia Lanier book I've read, but it won't be the last! I'm going to buy the rest of her books as soon as I can find them.

You'll fall in love with Bobby Lee and wish you had a bloodhound of your own.


5 out of 5 stars Great!   July 19, 1998

I'm a (Southern, female) dog trainer who also loves mysteries. How could I resist? Yet I have been very disappointed in some other mystery books/series that featured dogs. Not with this one! Everything reads true - the dogs and the trainer's relationship with them, the language, the rural Southern culture and especially Jo Beth Siddons, the fiesty feminist heroine. The plot is compelling, with several mysteries, interesting relationships and Jo Beth's own brand of justice. But you don't need to like dogs to enjoy this book ... you just need to like a really well-written mystery.


5 out of 5 stars Very enjoyable,lots of humor and suspense.   June 21, 1997

I picked up this book at the grocery store because I was desperate[nothing to read!],what a pleasant surprise!Since I had never heard of the author or this series of 'bloodhound'books,I gambled 6 bucks and I won!

The heroine,Jo Beth Sidden,has a bloodhound training complex with assorted interesting employees and different plot lines make the book interesting from beginning to end.

I will be definitly be reading the rest of the books in this series!

5 out of 5 stars Experience the Joy of Bloodhounds and the Thrill of a "Find"   July 8, 1996
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Virginia Lanier continues the story of Jo Beth Siddon, a tough Southern Belle in a snake-proofsuit who lives with her beloved bloodhounds. The reader experiences the joy offollowing the hounds with the nearly mythical sense of smell as they lead Jo Beth on adventures in saving lives. The humidity and animal life in the swamp drifts around you as you read. The story accurately portrays the great hearts of the dogs and also the owners who trust them enough to follow into endless swamp land. Jo Beth is a richly detailed character, battling personal demons while helping others. The reader will not only be entertained but also get a true feel for the mysterious powers of the bloodhound.
