 This is the second book in a series about small-town vet Cyrus Mills, who recently returned to his hometown after twenty-five years of trying to distance himself from his family and his past. Used to looking at life through the lens of a microscope, Cyrus is incredibly awkward in social situations as well as with the animals who are supposed to be his patients. He truly cares about them, though, and that's what has me hooked on this series. He goes above and beyond to make sure that not just the animals are happy, but their humans as well. 
 The author is a veterinary surgeon and his own expertise gives the book a very authentic feel. The medical mysteries are very interesting and I love how Cyrus is able to look at the behavior and environment of the animals to get to the root of the problem. Sometimes it is definitely not what you would think! 
 This book has a lot of things to love! Great characters, a lot of humor, and sweet, funny animals throughout.
