( ) audio mystery fiction/dog humor, book 11 in series (~9 hours) I turn to this audiobook series when I want to put something comforting on, like reruns of a favorite tv show. Chet is always the same old happy, waggy, loyal Chet (I still laugh at his doggy humor, no matter if the jokes are the same, or even if I am replaying the same parts I heard minutes ago), Bernie his quick-thinking sidekick. The plots are somewhat predictable and in a way that is comforting too. It’s a wonder Bernie can keep Chet in dog biscuits. He has an “almost” client who is so scared that she disappears before they can meet in person. But Chet takes the case anyway. And then a strange man offers him a case that would mean big bucks, but not trusting this mysterious man who talks in circles, Bernie turns it down. More strange disappearances, peculiar happenings, attacks, and a ferret all play a part in this case without a client. No wonder Bernie keeps digging and Chet is confused. Bernie has to figure out how it all connects. It’s a good thing Chet has Bernie’s back in this case - Bernie is going to need some help with this one! Told from Chet’s point of view, this mystery is filled with doggie humor liberally sprinkled over the passages that still contain quite a bit terror. What a great mix! This is a private eye "chase-the-bad-guy" story that begins with a damsel in distress who promptly disappears. Looking for her leads to some local baddies and low lifes to an eventual resolution of sorts. There's also some crooked cops and shady politicians. Along the way to the resolution is the rescue of a kidnapped dog and the search for a missing ferret. It's narrated by the private detective's dog and so events are seen from a dog's point of view. Animal lovers will likely be attracted to this book by its unique perspective, although it's questionable how long this narrative style will hold their attention. Despite that, this is a long running series. There's sufficient backstory to allow it to be read as a standalone. The author's a good storyteller and I'd therefore rate this as an OK read. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Gehört zur ReiheChet and Bernie (11)
"Spencer Quinn's Tender Is the Bite is a brand new adventure in the New York Times and USA Today bestselling series that Stephen King calls "without a doubt the most original mystery series currently available." Chet and Bernie are contacted by a terribly scared young woman who seems to want their help. Before she can even tell them her name, she flees in panic. But in that brief meeting Chet sniffs out an important secret about her, a secret at the heart of the mystery he and Bernie set out to solve. It's a case with no client and no crime and yet great danger, with the duo facing a powerful politician who has a lot to lose. Their only hope lies with a ferret named Griffie who adores Bernie. Is there room for a ferret in the Chet and Bernie relationship? That's the challenge Chet faces, the biggest of his career. Hanging in the balance are the lives of two mistreated young women and the future of the whole state"-- Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
