Loyal canine Chet the Jet and PI Bernie Little are in Washington, DC, visiting Bernie's girlfriend, reporter Susie Sanchez, who has recently moved to the capital city to pursue her career. Susie is working on a mysterious story encompassing intrigue, murder, spies, and a very strange bird. When her source meets with foul play, the mistakenly jealous Bernie finds himself under arrest. Chet's storytelling makes for laugh-out-loud hilarity as the "doggedness" of the Little Detective Agency uncovers the inner worlds of conspiracy and politics. Well narrated by Jim Frangione, this book may be enjoyed as a stand-alone, but don't miss the previous entries in an always enjoyable detective fiction series.
VERDICT Recommend to fans of David Rosenfelt's Andy Carpenter legal thrillers and the Sneaky Pie books by Rita Mae Brown. ["Fans of the series will enjoy this latest outing, as will those who enjoy a solid murder mystery/political thriller. Anyone who loves dogs will recognize the authenticity of Chet's original perspective on life and its mysteries," read the review of the Atria pb, LJ 7/14.]
