Spencer Quinn answered Donne's question: I've been racking my brain trying to remember Chet's puppy's name, the pup who now lives with his son and ex-wife. What's the puppy's name? Shooter is the name of that little miscreant.

Spencer Quinn answered Robert Maneer's question: Thank you, I love Chet and Bernie and want to keep the stories coming Thank you so much for writing them. They are definitely special with special characters and plots? Many thanks, Robert. I love writing them! A Farewell to Arfs comes out in 2 weeks but it is not goodbye to the series - just a reader-suggested title I liked.
