- Margaret O'Halloran sets out to discover whether a dog killed her friend and mentor, Harry Bowman. To do this, O'Halloran must delve into the dark secrets of her home town and what she finds not only turns her world upside down, it could cost her life.—Anonymous
- Margaret O'Halloran can think like a dog. This is a rare gift; something many aspire to but few achieve. It has earned her the title of Dogwoman. With the dog as her only clue, Margaret is drawn into a world of mystery, intrigue and sometimes even murder, which lies beneath the surface of the happy, dog-owning family. A world in which everyone has a secret and the dog is the only one telling the truth.
- Something is rotten in the town of Jindarup. Harry Bowman, the old Dog Man, has gone missing. The locals of the small country town assume that he's disappeared out bush. But Margaret O'Halloran, the legendary Dog Woman, fears that something terrible has happened to her friend and mentor. She returns to her hometown to search for him, meeting up with family, old friends and older adversaries. She and Kelty track Harry into the bushes and find him - or what's left of him. Harry is dead, eaten by a wild animal. What killed Harry? Wild speculation flies around town. Could it be the thylacine, the supposedly extinct Tasmanian tiger which is rumoured to live near Jindarup? Could it be the rogue dog that's been killing livestock in the area? Or is there a human hand in Harry's death? Margaret begins to suspect the latter when she learns that Harry has been making enemies in Jindarup. Harry has refused to acknowledge that he's seen the mythical thylacine and that he may even have a photograph of it. But Clive Hart, the real estate agent, is banking on a thylacine lead recovery from Jindarup's economic woes. He's convinced that Harry has this photo and is determined to get it no matter what the cost. Then Margaret discovers that Harry was having an affair. Who is this mystery woman? Is it Jacinta Davies, Margaret's old enemy from high school? And if it is, how is she connected to Harry's death? As Margaret gets closer to the truth, she learns that Harry's secrets are much closer to home than she had ever suspected. These revelations not only turn Margaret's world upside down, they may very well cost her her life.
