The badgers are closing in. Mommy won't stop dating jerks. And somebody around here has to keep this cul-de-sac safe.
Meet Daisy Ratzenberger: nine pounds of pure fury, decorated operative of the Secret Wiener Society, and devoted protector of a lonely lady named Claire — a woman with a hopeless talent for bringing home exactly the wrong man.
Armed with her trusty iWeen, a squad of imaginary dachshund colleagues, and an unshakable belief in her own importance, Daisy documents it all: the date who lost his pants, the doctor who rubs bellies with two fingers (TWO FINGERS), the mysterious storm-drain Portal to the badger underworld, and the suspiciously wonderful young writer across the street who might — just might — be one of the good ones.
She can't drive (long story — a file was lost). She can't work a phone (no thumbs). And she definitely can't tell Claire which man to choose. But when Daisy's big chance at freedom goes wildly wrong, she'll discover what every dog secretly knows: the real mission was never the badgers.
A laugh-out-loud, tissue-alert retelling of There Are No Men from the only witness who saw it all — from under the coffee table.
Some agents get medals. This one gets belly rubs.
Genre: Romance
