    Number 10 in a best-selling series, which can be a stand-alone listen. 
    Reformed computer hacker Steve Levitan has built a new life for himself after prison, including a home with his fiancée and his golden retriever Rochester. It matters deeply to him, enough to risk it all to bring justice to a killer in his neighborhood. 
    When the clue-sniffing Rochester discovers a body during one of their nightly walks, Steve must look to his neighbors for suspects. Could a killer be lurking along the oak-lined streets? 
    Steve inherited his townhome from his father, and it's more than just a house to him-- it's the place where he recovered from the loss of two miscarried babies, the pain of losing his parents and the misery of his brief incarceration. Now that he has a new sweetheart, and a loving dog, protecting his home is even more important. 
    Could someone in the homeowner's association be sabotaging efforts to keep River Bend a well-maintained place to live? It's up to Steve and Rochester to dig up the clues to bring a murderer to justice, and protect the place they call home.
