Want to tell yall about a good mystery series I recently discovered. [View all]

The Chet and Bernie mysteries, by Spencer Quinn.

Chet and Bernie comprise the Little Detective Agency. Bernie is the human half of the business; Chet is the canine half.

What’s so great about this series is that Chet narrates the books. And he does project the viewpoint of a dog; very interested in smells, thinks his owner is wonderful, satisfied with very simple pleasures. These books are often humorous. Sometimes the plot isn’t terribly strong, but I could overlook that because the Chet’s viewpoint is so enjoyable.

There are four books in the series and Amazon says the author is working on a fifth.
