Couldn't load pickup availability
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? Up on the Woof Top is a brand-new holiday adventure in Spencer Quinn's delightful New York Times and USA Today bestselling series that the Los Angeles Times called "nothing short of masterful."Share

A most enjoyable read. Everyone loves Chet and Bernie. It appears that the author has FINALLY gotten past his initial (and oft-repeated) strategem of placing Chet in woefully dire situations for several chapters on end. That ploy doesn't increase readership. It just adds unnecessary angst. It is a delight and a relief to read an installment in this series where the dog is not abused and suffering, as he consistently was in the early books of this series.
This is a laugh out loud mystery series! Please, Mr Quinn, keep writing this highly addictive series.The reviews say it all...you have given us a gift but, as I finish the last book, I find myself in mourning that I won't see any more of Chet and Bernie's adventures...I may have to start Therapy!!!

Great book if you love dogs and mystery.
I love all of the Chet and Bernie books and this one was no exception. It was a bit different since the setting was the Christmas season.
