A tough girl on the run from her own gift, Pru left the big city to return to her picturesque Berkshires hometown looking for a little peace. Too bad that her training as an animal behaviorist got her mixed up with Lily-a\u00c2\u00a0 rescue dog-and Charles-Lily&#8217;s person. Now Charles is dead, and Lily looks good for it. After all, Lily is a pitbull, a fighting ring dropout, and way too traumatized to give Pru a clear picture of what she has witnessed. But Pru knows something about bad girls trying to\u00c2\u00a0 clean up, and, with a sense of justice strong enough to overcome her dislike of human society, she takes the case. Listening to the animals, Pru picks up clues-and learns there are secrets in the\u00c2\u00a0 pretty little town that make murder look simple. Unable to tell anybody about her psychic abilities, uncertain at times about her own\u00c2\u00a0 sanity, Pru comes to realize that if she clears Lily, she&#8217;ll likely become the prime suspect-or the next victim. While the only creature she can totally trust is her crotchety tabby Wallis, Pru&#8217;s got to uncover the real killer-and find a way to live with her gift-before the real beasts in the town savage her and those she has come to love. The first in the Pru Marlowe &#8220;pet noir&#8221; series.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2935\" title=\"The EOS Reader 2010\" src=\"http:\/\/www.amberstults.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/eosreader_sm.jpg\" alt=\"The EOS Reader 2010 book cover\" width=\"80\" height=\"120\" \/>The second ARC I received was the\u00c2\u00a0EOS Reader 2010 with various authors via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.netgalley.com\">NetGalley<\/a>\u00c2\u00a0from HarperCollins.
