Chet and Bernie Mysteries, Book 14

By: Spencer Quinn

Narrated by: Jim Frangione

Chet the dog, "the most lovable narrator in all of crime fiction" (Boston Globe), and his human partner Bernie Little find themselves high in the mountains this holiday season to help Dame Ariadne Carlisle, a renowned author of bestselling Christmas mysteries, find Rudy, her lead reindeer and good luck charm, who has gone missing.

At Kringle Ranch, Dame Ariadne's expansive mountain spread, Chet discovers that he is not fond of reindeer. But the case turns out to be about much more than reindeer after Dame Ariadne's personal assistant takes a long fall into Devil's Purse, a deep mountain gorge. When our duo discovers that someone very close to Dame Ariadne was murdered in that same spot decades earlier, they start looking into that long ago unsolved crime.

But as they reach into the past, the past is also reaching out for them. Can they unlock the secrets of Dame Ariadne's life before they too end up at the bottom of the gorge? Is Rudy somehow the key?

Big Fan

I'm a big Chet and Bernie fan and this was not exception. Enjoyed it all. Sometimes after an intense book or two, I like to kick back and relax with something fun. That's Chet and Bernie. Funny as ever.

Short but worth the listen

Chet and Bernie on the Christmas case!! A somewhat shorter story but still full of Chet’s antics with a sprinkle of Christmas magic!

Feel good series

I’ve listened to all the Chet and Bernie books and eagerly await the next one. They are laugh out loud good. I know I will be in for a solid mystery told as only Chet can do.

One so good I’ll listen again!

Love the series and #14 is my favorite to date. Endearing narrator. Well developed characters with good back stories. Chet and Bernie are terrific. What a great break it is to listen to💕

Always a winner.

Love Chet and Bernie, a dynamic duo. I think Chet's dialog is the topping on the cake.
