It was all going so well until an old man with old fashioned ideas stuck his nose in …
Amsterdam has its share of seedy criminals, just like everywhere else.
Sylvia van Lidth sits atop a criminal empire providing a service to a very specific clientele … a very wealthy clientele with a particular taste. She fought to achieve her lofty status and is not about to let anything stop her.
Lee Yoo, the local boss of Korea’s most ruthless crime family, has an order of high-end cars to steal. He doesn’t want to consider the consequences of failure.
Arriving in the heart of Amsterdam, Albert’s only aim is to sample the local cuisine, but when his detective’s nose results in being mistaken for a thief, his faithful companion and sidekick, Rex, is taken from him.
To get him back, he will have to uncover a crime ring that spans half the globe and risk not only his own life, but the lives of everyone involved, good and bad.
The stakes are higher than ever, but Albert Smith has nothing left to lose.
Never underestimate the bond between man and dog.

Title: Love the series
Review: Albert and Rex are wonderful. Dogs are so intelligent if given the chance to prove it. The capers they find and the crimes they solve are amazing. Great read as usual. Steve Higgs is an amazing writer and storyteller.

Title: Old Fashioned by Steve Higgs

Title: People Should Know
Review: People everywhere should know and then do everything within their power to combat dog fights and other animal abuse. Whether they are domesticated or wild animals this abuse must be stopped and it takes a village to get it done.The book was well written as it kept you captivated throughout the storyline. I like how Albert, although being older, always plays one of the more important part in solving a mystery. Yes, we older people are slower, but donât underestimate our knowledge. Rex is a hero and Iâm so happy he was a bigger part of the book. If only our species could be more like the rest of the animal kingdom we would have a perfect world.

Title: Truly This One Went to the Dogs!
Review: Steve Higgs has done it again! Several ops were running by the different groups in this story. Of course, Albert was working for justice, plus they took his dog!! But, the street racers were under attack. The Korean cartel was stealing their cars! The local Criminal was staging dog fights the ultra rich using stolen dogs! The local dog catcher was selling aggressive dogs taken off the street and telling the owners they’d been prematurely euthanized, by accident. Rex found himself in this group and took charge!! The Koreans were also stuffing the stolen street cars with drugs when they shipped them overseas! So much non-stop action!! There’s marijuana brownies, wild animals, and a heartless criminal lining her pockets from wagers placed on stolen dogs fighting to the death!! Set in Amsterdam. Great story!! This review doesn’t do it justice. Read yourself and you be the judge!

Title: Albert Loses Rex
Review: Albert & Rex are in Amsterdam. They get a whole day together before things go awry. Albert is arrested and Rex goes to the Pound to be processed. Albert finally realizes poor Rex is kidnapped. However will they find each other again? Oddly enough through illegal car racing and dog fights and drug trafficking. Underneath all the chaos is a very charming story.A good read.

Review: This is one of the best Albert and Rex stories I have read so far. Exciting storyline which is interesting and horrifying in equal measures, the depravity of humans and their capacity to inflict pain and suffering in other creatures (and enjoy it) is horrifying. At least in this story the books are balanced!
