"One thing's for sure," the lawyer said, handing Bernie our check, "you earned every cent." Bernie tucked the check in -oh, no-the chest pocket of his Hawaiian shirt, just about his nicest Hawaiian shirt, with the hula dancers and the trombones, but that wasn't the point. The point was we'd had chest pocket problems in the past, more than once. And possibly more than twice, but I wouldn't know, since I don't count past two."
Guess whose thoughts these are? Chet, who is an extra smart dog and side kick to his human private eye partner, Bernie.
These sentences quoted above begin the sixth Bernie and Chet mystery, "The Sound and the Furry." In it they battle a biker gang, shadowy black ops figures, and Igo the ever hungry bayou alligator.

Ooops, this post appeared today April 10, but I meant for it to appear
April 15, on a Friday. And the date of the post says April 15. Anyway, I guess it is no big deal that the dates differ. For those of us in the USA April 15 is the day taxes are due!

That sounds like a fun read! I bet the dog is trying to "talk" some sense into Bernie.
thanks for sharing
Interesting.
I've seen those books at the books where I work and the covers always make me smile. I'll have to read one of them! :)
No worries, Terra, you're just ahead of your blogging game ;)
and a fun post ! I remember thinking last year this author would work for completing the 'Q' in the author A-Z challenge ;)
All different reasons for reading, just as long as we are reading ... EnJoy! and thanks for the tip for Friday Book Beginnings !

Thanks for doing us this week. I read the first two books in this series and enjoyed them. I like the intro and would read more.
I've read the first in this series, and found it to be quite fun. I imagine this one is too!
That looks like a fun book series. I am always looking for a good book to read!
sounds like a fun book...i think the title is cool and interesting!!!
Every time I see your book suggestions, I tell myself, "I must get back to reading." I loved your comment today on my broken wing post. Thank you, Terra.
