Who says dogs aren't as smart as humans?
This is a perfect book for all doglovers!

After Enzo's master, Denny, marries Eve, Enzo often feels lonely and forgotten.
Eve doesn't have the same affection for Enzo that Denny has for him, and as Denny is often away racing cars, it is just Enzo, Eve and the newborn baby, Zoe.

Then Enzo learns something terrible: there is something wrong with Eve and that changes everything.The dog can smell the disease in her head long before anyone knows something is wrong, but alas dogs cannot speak!

One day, in playing with Zoe, Eve slips and falls, suffering a minor concussion. On a trip to the hospital, the doctors dicover what Enzo knew long ago: Eve has brain disease!

Eve's parents, christened the Twins, want their daughter at their home, and also demand that Zoe come as well, but when Eve dies the Twins say Eve wanted them to keep her daughter!

Fighting mad, Denny launches himself into the battle. His daughter has almost been secured when he is arrested for raping a 15 year old who had tried to seduce him when his wife was still alive!!

Enzo knows the truth, but how can a dog tell the jury what really happened? Enzo is aging, after all, and is no longer the puppy he once was.

Will Zoe come home? Will Denny be listed as a sex offender for the rest of his life? And what will happen to Enzo, a one-of-a-kind dog?
