Reviews"Chet tells the story, and his literal perceptions are a delightful contrast to the sinister crime, which will delight fans of the long-running series."-- Booklist Praise for the Chet and Bernie series: "I have been a Chet and Bernie fan from the start. Chet is a wonderful narrator--top dog, you could say--but he never descends to cuteness, and Bernie is as tough a PI as Spade or Marlowe, a man as quick with his .38 as he is with a Slim Jim for his sidekick. I'm already jonesing for the next one." --Stephen King "A tidy mystery, a good dollop of action, and a rumination on life after high school--who could ask for more? Chet, with his innate doggie wisdom, is sure to inspire loyal fans and seduce new readers." -- Publishers Weekly on Bark to the Future "Chet's narration provides humor and insight, and Bernie's search into his own past provides meditations on growing up and growing apart." -- Library Journal on Bark to the Future "Delightful...dog lovers won't want to miss this one." -- Publishers Weekly on Heart of Barkness "Would that we all were as infallible in our dogs' eyes as Bernie is in Chet's." --Susan Wilson, New York Times bestselling author of The Dog I Loved "Cleverly plotted...Chet is a source of wisdom and innate doggie joie de vivre, making this a real pleasure for anyone who has ever looked into a dog's eyes and asked: who's a good boy?" -- Publishers Weekly, Praise for the Chet and Bernie series: "I have been a Chet and Bernie fan from the start.

SynopsisChet the dog, "the most lovable narrator in all of crime fiction" ( Boston Globe ) and his human partner PI Bernie Little are on to a new case, and this time they're entangled in a web of crime unlike anything they've ever seen before. Their elderly next door neighbor, Mr. Parsons, thought he was doing the right thing by loaning his ne'er do well son, Billy, some money to help get himself settled. But soon, Mr. Parsons discovers that his entire life savings is gone. A run-of-the-mill scam? Bernie isn't so sure that the case is that simple, but it's Chet who senses what they're really up against. Only Billy knows the truth, but he's disappeared. Can Chet and Bernie track him down before it's too late? Someone else is also in the hunt, an enemy with a mysterious, cutting-edge power who will test Chet and Bernie to their limit--or maybe beyond. Even poker, not the kind of game they're good at, plays a role. Spencer Quinn's A Farewell to Arfs ups the ante in the action-packed and witty New York Times and USA Today bestselling series that Stephen King calls "without a doubt the most original mystery series currently available."
