Dead Men Don't Play Fetch is thirty-third in David Rosenfelt's cozy mystery series starring reluctant lawyer Andy Carpenter and his ever growing circle of friends and associates. As always, a canine connection pulls him into defending what seems to be a lost cause.

Andy's old friend Lou Campanelli runs a rehab center, and homeless veteran Jason Maddox (a physicist and war hero) is a patient. When Jason is charged with the murder of billionaire Paul Vincent, who had been his friend, Lou asks for Andy's help - with the case and with Jason's beloved dog Hope. The die is cast.

Laurie gets their usual team together - lawyer Eddie to request discovery; hacker Sam to do what he does best; office manager Edna who does as little as possible; Willie who helps when he can; and ex-cop investigator Corey and silent, dangerous Marcus, who work with Laurie. They follow the usual red herrings.

Readers are made aware of irregularities in a company, BioCore Dynamics, that Vincent founded. There are more deaths. Then Andy's team find a connection to gangsters and money laundering and patents. As always, he is able to convince the jury of his client's innocence, and it's a pleasure to watch him do it.
