A dog trainer-turned-PI and her pit bull go after a killer--with a little help from a courageous dachshund--in this mystery by a Shamus Award winner. Rachel and Dash have a new client. Well, three new clients. A trio of transvestite working girls want Rachel to investigate the death of one of their own. Rosalinda's throat was slashed on Halloween right after the Greenwich Village parade. Finding her killer isn't exactly the NYPD's top priority--and LaDonna, Chi Chi, and Jasmine are terrified that they'll be next. With her cash retainer in hand--and very few leads--Rachel starts digging. What is the connection between Rosalinda and a dead butcher? Soon, with the help of Chi Chi's mini-dachshund, Clint, Rachel is breaking into a plant in the Meatpacking District. But her future is suddenly on the line when she sets herself up as bait to catch the killer. As Rachel follows a twisting trail with only Dash for protection, she discovers that her foray into "the life" could end with her own untimely death. The Long Good Boy is the 6th book in the Rachel Alexander and Dash Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.… (altro)

Sometimes a book is just so painful to read, the sadness of whatever slice of life the author is portraying is just so overwhelming that even if the mystery itself is riveting and the ending a surprise and well done you are left feeling somewhat depressed. There is a reason I read cosies rather than true crime or hardcore mysteries...I have seen too much of real life and I am no longer interested in taking in the pain of some realities. That being said, there are three more Rachel and Dash books and I plan to read them. The people in Rachel's life live gritty lives. ( )

An interesting, quick read. More than I would ever care to know about "trannies"- transvestite hookers. Now what would entice someone to dive into that lifestyle and write a book about it?
