Killer Triggers by Joe Kenda DB111259
I listened to this read by Joe Kenda. He has such a dry sense of humor. Even though the subject matter is serious, this made me chuckle more than once. He talked about some of his famous cases, jokes included. He had a chapter on police canines which was quite humorous. Once again, if you have watched him on TV, this is a must read.

Finally, she comes to terms with what is the next step for her life; loving Dorothy; and the secrets she was keeping from Henry about her sister. There are many parallels to the movie mentioned in the story.
