In the seventh book in the brilliant New York Times bestselling mystery series, canine narrator Chet and P.I. Bernie journey to Washington, DC, and the dog-eat-dog world of our nation's capital. Stephen King has called Chet "a canine Sam Spade full of joie de vivre." Robert B. Parker dubbed Spencer Quinn's writing "major league prose." Now the beloved team returns in another suspenseful novel that finds Chet sniffing around the capital city and using his street smarts to uncover a devilish plot. Chet and Bernie pay a visit to Bernie's girlfriend, Suzie Sanchez, a crack reporter living in far-off Washington, DC. She's working on a big story she can't talk about, but when her source, a mysterious Brit with possible intelligence connections, runs into trouble of the worst kind, Bernie suddenly finds himself under arrest.

— Publishers Weekly“Fans of the series will enjoy this latest outing, as will those who enjoy a solid murder mystery/political thriller. Anyone who loves dogs will recognize the authenticity of Chet’s original perspective on life and its mysteries.”
— Library Journal“Both smart and funny.”
— Booklist“Chet and Bernie’s adventures, presented from the viewpoint of the often befuddled Chet, are always a hoot. This one salts a doggedly determined investigation with plenty of laughs.”
