<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> <p><b>THE INSTANT <i>USA TODAY </i>BESTSELLER<br></b><b><br>Spencer Quinn's <i>Heart of Barkness</i> is the latest in the <i>New York Times</i> bestselling series that the <i>Los Angeles Times</i> called "nothing short of masterful... <p/></b>Chet the dog, "the most lovable narrator in all of crime fiction" (<i>Boston Globe</i>), and P.I. Bernie encounter heartache and much worse in the world of country music. They're both music lovers, so when Lotty Pilgrim, a country singer from long ago, turns up at a local bar, they drive out to catch her act. Bernie's surprised to see someone who was once so big performing in such a dive, and drops a C-note the Little Detective Agency can't afford to part with into the tip jar. The C-note is stolen right from under their noses - even from under Chet's, the nose that misses nothing - and before the night is over, it's stolen again. <p/>Soon they're working the most puzzling case of their career, a case that takes them back in time in search of old border-town secrets, and into present-day danger because powerful people want those secrets to stay hidden. Chet and Bernie find themselves sucked into a real-life murder ballad where they have no one to trust but each other.</p> <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> <p>"Chet, the dog, and Bernie, the PI, are a team made in mystery series heaven.
