This book is sooooo boring and I tried my best to stay with it but it jumps around and then you are left thinking OK SO TALK ALREADY!!!! I got to about 1/2 of the book or a little more and was very mad I had spent money to numb my mind!!!!! Was not the page turner I expected.

But although the story is interesting and suspenseful it is sometimes overwritten. And readers who are not interested in the breeding, raising, and training of dogs may well find those passages too frequent and too long.
