For a different view of an investigation try Of Mutts and Men, one of the Chet and Bernie Mysteries by Spencer Quinn. Follow along as the crime/mystery is solved from Chet, the dog's observations. These are fun! I love how phrases we use, say, 'stop pussy footing around', sound fine to us, but to Chet, well, he's going to be looking or sniffing for a cat! This time the story revolves around water, or lack there of, so it was an interesting read during the all time heat wave here in the Pacific Northwest.

I often listen to my CDs of The Vinyl Cafe on those nights when I cannot sleep. Stuart McLean had one of those great 'story telling' voices. I like to read those stories, too, as they often include more details than the stories from the radio show. Secrets From the Vinyl Cafe was a delightful collection from someone I miss to this day. (He died in 2017). I hear his voice as I read. :-)
