Howloween Murder

Praise for Laurien Berenson and her Melanie Travis Canine Mysteries

"When a new book by Laurien Bereson comes out, I'm on it like a dog on a liver treat...not only do readers get a diverting story, they also get lots of behind-the-scenes intel on dog shows and the main character's preferred breed." --The Bark on Bite Club

"Anyone who has not read Berenson should venture into this cute and humorous mystery. The reader will feel they are a part of the story whether investigating the murder, playing with the darling puppies, or setting up holiday decorations." --The Military Press on Here Comes Santa Paws

"Filled with more dogs, more fun, and more mystery, this cozy is the perfect summer read." --Modern Dog on Bite Club

"Bite Club is another satisfying title in Berenson's Canine Mystery series. Boomer, Lilly and I give it our highest rating--ten dog biscuits!" --Suspense Magazine

"Dog-loving mystery fans will welcome another Christmas caper featuring Melanie, Aunt Peg, and their Poodles."
--Library Journal on Wagging Through the Snow

"Well-drawn characters, especially Melanie and her acerbic aunt, contribute to the appeal here, along with the warm, sometimes humorous scenes of family life. Melanie's beloved six dogs are woven throughout the holiday-themed cozy, which will appeal to readers of Susan Conant's Holly Winter mysteries and Barbara Allan's Trash 'n' Treasures series." --Booklist on Wagging Through the Snow

"This exciting Christmas whodunit is a great book to curl up with at any time of the year, and is one that is sure to keep you on your toes!" --Modern Dog

"Berenson weaves together mystery, humor, dogs (of course!) and the effects of homelessness and alcoholism on families to create a short but sweet holiday tale." --Philadelphia Daily News on Wagging Through the Snow

"Cozy mysteries may have cats galore to charm their readers, but dog lovers are well served by Berenson's sweet series." --Publishers Weekly on Ruff Justice

"This long-running series continues to appeal with its combination of an always sprightly pace, a realistically harried but quick-thinking heroine, and a wealth of fascinating details about the dog show world." --Booklist on The Bark Before Christmas

"Melanie's engaging narration, with its slightly sarcastic flair, makes her utterly relatable. Fans will roll over with joy, and new cozy readers will likely scoop up the rest of the series." --Publishers Weekly on Death of a Dog Whisperer
