Bernie Little find that Hollywood has gone to the dogs. <p/>While Tinseltown bad boy Thad Perry is in town shooting a big-budget Western, Bernie and Chet have to keep him out of trouble. But soon they discover Thad has a mysterious connection to the Valley, and the only people who know his secrets keep turning up dead before they can talk. <p/>As Bernie's love life goes long-distance and Chet's late-night assignations give rise to an unexpected dividend, it's all our two sleuths can do to keep the actor in their sights. Worst of all, Thad is a self-proclaimed cat person, and his feline friend Brando has taken an instant dislike to Chet. <p/>Like the winning books before it, this fifth book in the series combines a topnotch mystery with genuine humor and a perceptive take on the relationship between human and dog that will stay with you long after the case is solved.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Praise for the<i> New York Times</i> Bestselling Chet and Bernie Mystery Series <p/> </b>Nothing short of masterful.<br> --<i>Los Angeles Times<br> </i><br> Even cat lovers will howl with delight.<br> --<i>USA Today</i> <p/> Spencer Quinn speaks two languages--suspense and dog--fluently.<br> --Stephen King <p/> Pulls the reader along as if on a leash.<br> --<i>Booklist<br> </i><br> "Quinn radiates pure comic genius...You don't have to be a dog lover to enjoy this deliciously addictive series."<br> --<i>Publishers Weekly</i> (Starred Review)<br><br><i>Praise for A Fistful of Collars</i> <p/> "Between Chet's insightful and humorous takes on human events, the fast-paced plot, and the wealth of fascinating secondary characters, this is a fine entry in a not-to-be-missed series.<br> --<i>Booklist</i><br><br>"These books... are as skillfully rendered as they are clever and fully worthy of the attention of any reader.-- "The Denver Post"<br><br>Once again, Quinn...effectively uses a dog narrator while avoiding the sentimentality that marks many animal-centered cozies.<br> <i>--Publishers Weekly</i><br><br>This delightful buddy tale... will have no problem engaging and entertaining readers just discovering this series. --<i>Shelf Awareness</i><br><br><b>"</b>Chet, who continues as narrator in this exciting fifth installment of the series...always gets it right in the end."<br> --<i>Kirkus Reviews</i><br><br>"You would think that by the fifth series title, Quinn might have run out of ideas and quips--he hasn't.
