Spencer Quinn's first original e–short story
reveals how everyone's favorite detective duo—Chet the
Dog and P.I. Bernie Little—came to meet before their
first big case in Dog On It.
As fans know, Chet first met Bernie on that fateful day
when he flunked out of K–9 police school. The details
of that day though have always remained a little vague (like
so much in Chet's doggy brain). All we know is that Chet had
been the best leaper in his K–9 class, but for some
reason he failed his final leaping test...and that a cat was
involved...and that there was some blood. But whose? The
test, the cat, the blood—all pieces of a puzzle that,
when solved, will bring down a dangerous gang of
thieves—and signal the start of a beautiful friendship.
This fateful day has been alluded to in every book in the
series, and now fans of Chet and Bernie will finally get to
find out what actually happened. For these two beloved
characters, it was something like love at first
sight—and, for Chet, at first smell, too.
