Spencer Quinn

Canine fans of Chet (dog) and Bernie (human) and author Spencer Quinn are welcome at our event for A Fistful of Collars, held in conjunction with SNAP, San Diego’s Spay Neuter Action Project. SNAP will have a table with information on their programs, and have some visitor dogs looking for forever homes via adoption! In the fourth entry for this duo, Chet and Bernie are hired to keep an eye on movie star Thad Perry when he is shooting on location. Keeping the volatile actor on a tight leash is no easy task, even before the related murders begin.

You can also learn more about animals available for adoption from SNAP here. And read an interview with Kings River Life here!

In this fifth Chet (the Dog) and Bernie mystery, the pair is offered an unusual case: babysitting movie star Thad Perry, Hollywood's hottest action hero and notorious bad boy. The mayor assigns them to keep Thad out of trouble during the shoot to insure that Hollywood comes calling again. But just a few days into the job, they suspect something's fishy. When Bernie's digging uncovers links to a cold case, he believes it's all traceable to a devastating event that has haunted Thad for years. But can he and Chet root out the truth before Thad cracks under the strain? With Bernie up against some nasty criminals and Chet sniffing out the bad guys while trying to negotiate an uneasy truce with Thad's cat, Brando, this pair has their hands—and paws—full.
