Lady Vanishes by Carol Lea Benjamin
A Rachel Alexander and Dash Mystery (4th in series)
Publisher: HarperCollins

Dash, Rachel Alexander's pit bull terrier, has come to be known as half a sleuthing team. But when not called upon to solve crimes he has another very important job: that of a therapy dog, working with people who are developmentally challenged.

Lady, a mop-coated puli, was the therapy dog at Harbor View, a Greenwich Village home for "throw away" people. But now lady has vanished … and the owner of the home has been killed in a bizarre and mysterious hit-and-run accident. Rachel and Dash are the perfect duo to tackle this mystery: she can find the answers and Dash can bring a sense of calm and order to the residents.

As the pieces start coming together, Rachel and Dash not only expose an ugly plot, but also help some innocent victims find justice in a world that too often ignores them.

Fall Guy by Carol Lea Benjamin
A Rachel Alexander and Dash Mystery (6th in series)
Publisher: HarperCollins

A New York City police officer nearing retirement dies "accidentally" while cleaning his service revolver in the bathroom of his Greenwich Village apartment. Private investigator Rachel Alexander is stunned to learn she's been named the executor to his will — after all, they'd only met when she was doing pet therapy with her pit bull, Dashiell. A member of Rachel's 9/11 survivors group, the officer never spoke at meetings — a really hard case. But then there was the one time he took Dash for a walk around the block. When Dash returned, the fur on his head was soaked with tears.

Was this death really a suicide? And why would the deceased have chosen a near stranger to perform such an intimate task — especially when he's survived by a brother and sister? As Rachel sets about her work, she soon discovers a mystery from the deceased's childhood that may have led to this terrible tragedy.
