Fiction. Mystery. Suspense. Thriller. HTML: In the seventh book in the brilliant New York Times bestselling mystery series, canine narrator Chet and P.I.

Bernie decides to surprise Susie with a visit. But the surprise is on Bernie when he gets arrested for murder. This story, as the others in the series, is told from Chet the Jet’s point of view, and, as all know by now, he is of the nation within the nation, that is, a dog. This leads to much humor, as Chet tries to understand human speech (he’s not good with idioms). This tale also includes political intrigue, foreign diplomats, and intelligence connections. And the usual run-ins with biker dudes, chance meetings with old army buddies, and disagreements with local cops. It’s an exciting adventure from the beginning to the heart-stopping end, just the sort of tale readers of this series have come to expect. Well done. (

These Spencer Quinn mysteries are fun, especially for dog lovers everywhere, since the book is told through the eyes (and voice) of Chet, the canine half of the Little Detective Agency. Anyone whose ever looked at their dog and wondered what their pet was thinking should appreciate this series of books, since Quinn provides answers to those questions. Chet, who failed his final test to become a police K9 dog, is nevertheless a loyal partner to his master, a private detective, but comically is easily distracted by bacon, treats, or a friendly scratch behind the ears.

Unfortunately, and perhaps because I've now read a few of this series, "Paw and Order" didn't grab me to the same extent as the first couple of Spencer Quinn books did. While still enjoyable, personally, I'd recommend one of the earlier books in the series over this one. (

Entertaining, but this series is getting a bit long in the tooth - too much same-old, same-old. I still love Chet though. (

After the last Bernie and Chet book, I swore I was not going to read any more of them. Oops! This one was offered on Kindle Unlimited, and I wanted something light and fast. This one appealed to me more than the last one. Chet is still a lovable dog, and it's nice to read dog stories where the dog doesn't die and isn't abused. But the plots are formulaic and it's hard to laugh at even Chet's antics and thought processes when you've heard them all before. Not bad books, but as a series, stale. (

The Chet and Bernie books are a joy. The way Chet is written is engaging and funny; it explains certain looks I've caught on the dogs in my life. Very, very enjoyable. (
