Spencer Quinn's Tender Is the Bite is a brand-new adventure in the New York Times and USA Today best-selling series that Stephen King calls "without a doubt the most original mystery series currently available".

Chet and Bernie are contacted by a terribly scared young woman who seems to want their help. Before she can even tell them her name, she flees in panic. But in that brief meeting Chet sniffs out an important secret about her, a secret at the heart of the mystery he and Bernie set out to solve.

It's a case with no client and no crime and yet great danger, with the duo facing a powerful politician who has a lot to lose. Their only hope lies with a ferret named Griffie, who adores Bernie. Is there room for a ferret in the Chet and Bernie relationship? That's the challenge Chet faces, the biggest of his career. Hanging in the balance are the lives of two mistreated young women and the future of the whole state.

too many characters in story gets confusing off and on, and the action is not as "out front" as usual. but humor is present.

not as action-oriented as other stories

Another case under their belt. Chet is such a good boy and does so well keeping Bernie safe. I like how Bernie knows how valuable Chet is and how much he brings to the partnership.
A good question is, is Bernie’s love life going to ramp up? I hope so. He deserves it.

Love me some Chet and Bernie
