Two For The Price of Two!

Word is holiday shopping is underway. Here’s an idea for anyone who might be interested in the Chet and Bernie series. How about It’s A Wonderful Woof, the new holiday novel, plus for a digital stocking the digital short story Santa 365? An elf figures in both, but the two elves are rather different. No need to have already read any C&B – your giftee can start with these since the series can be read in any order, thanks to … well, a miracle of some kind!

Happy Thanksgiving, Everybody!

Rick Torres crouched under a strip of tape, came toward us, shook hands with Bernie. “Hey, Chet,” he said, and gave me a pat. “Lookin’ good. Is he still growing, Bernie?”

“Hardly seems possible,” Bernie said. “This is my son Charlie. Shake hands with Sergeant Torres, Charlie.”

Rick held out his hand. Charlie gazed down at the ground.

“I won’t bite,” Rick said. Of course he wouldn’t! Hardly any humans did, their little teeth not being much of a weapon. I did remember a perp named Clancy Green chomping on some other perp’s arm, but that was on a Halloween night, the only holiday I don’t like – Halloween brings out the worst in people, Bernie says. Thanksgiving is my favorite, except for that one time with the drumstick incident, maybe a story for another day.

Radio
