The Iggy Chronicles, Volume One: A Chet And Bernie Mystery EShort Story (2013) - Plot & Excerpts
There’s a pet food commercial on TV that features a number of dogs running and leaping. I don’t remember the name of the product but I love to watch the dogs and, every time I see it, I just naturally think of Chet because he takes such joy in life, the way those dogs look like they’re doing. Chet—and, of course, Bernie—are two of my favorite detectives and it’s always a treat to see them again.This time, their neighbor dog (and Chet’s pal), Iggy, has disappeared and his owner is desperate to find him for his very ill wife. Bernie and Chet take on the job and soon find a second mystery to look into. Our heroes make short work of all this (after all, this IS a short story) and I was quite satisfied with this little visit with the guys.Fair warning to those who count pages—this story takes up 24 0f the 45 pages and the rest is a blurb and excerpt of the following novel, The Sound and the Furry, along with a few other things. Chet's best bud/nextdoor neighbor Iggy goes missing and Bernie offers to look into it. In part I think what I liked so much about this was Chet was never sure if they were on a case or not so he just seemed to be having more fun. Chet's joie de vivre is so contagious I feel happy when I read this series. Not too many people can pull off writing from the dog's pov but Spencer Quinn has got it down!
