Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
The episodic sequel to Death in Bloodhound Red finds Georgia dog trainer Jo Beth Sidden coping with an enlarged staff and an upcoming week-long training seminar. Before the seminar begins, the sheriff asks her to check out a deputy he suspects of growing and selling marijuana. He also tells her about a local kidnapping that's pulled in the FBI and the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. Jo Beth hears that her abusive ex-husband, Bubba, who has vowed to harm her, has been paroled. While trying to keep herself and her students safe from him, she helps a friend's fiance retrieve buried money and gets a boyfriend of her own. An old friend, the security guard of the kidnapped man's firm, involves her in that case, too. While juggling responsibilities both large and small, Jo Beth recounts past triumphs of her 87 dogs and thoroughly describes the raising and training of bloodhounds. The fragmented story line here lacks the focused punch of the Lanier's debut, but Jo Beth's brash ingenuity and a wry sense of humor are intact.

From Kirkus Reviews
As if turning 30 isn't traumatic enough, feisty Jo Beth Sidden of Basla City, Georgia, has invested the $70,000 she inherited from her father into the business of putting 57 bloodhounds through six months of rigorous training. Six of those well-prepared hounds will go to work for law-enforcement masters. Meanwhile, Jo Beth has enough on her plate for a veritable smorgasbord during the nine eventful days of this serial-like novel. First and worst, her brutal wife-beating ex-husband Bubba has been released from prison. She was in the hospital for six months after his last rampage, which is why Jo Beth has security gates around her compound. Next, she helps her friend Sheri find a buried treasure of $100,000, left by Sheri's would-be father-in-law. And in between the pieces of Jo Beth's tell-all first-person narration there's the story of a man who's been kidnapped by his three sons and stuffed into a large container. You can figure that Jo Beth and her very talented if blind hound Bobby Lee will sniff out that man. She'll also rescue Mary Ann, a young woman who's been kidnapped by religious nutcase Preston Little; persuade a deputy not to grow and sell marijuana; and meet up with Chief Jonathan Webber of the Eppley Police Department, who takes a real shine to Jo Beth--and vice versa. A meandering, episodic second from Lanier (Death in Bloodhound Red, not reviewed), with an amiable Brett Butlerlike narrator and a cliffhanger of an ending. -- Copyright ©1996, Kirkus Associates, LP.
