Join Chet the dog, "the most lovable narrator in all of fiction" (Boston Globe), and his human partner Bernie as they scramble to solve a case exposing the dark side of internet fame.

Chet the dog is not enthusiastic about his and human partner PI Bernie Little's next case. Time is tight for them to find their missing person, and to make matters worse, that missing person is a cat. Miss Kitty, an internet sensation on a TikTok-like app, belongs to a teenage girl, Bitty, who lives with her mom. Her father is a no-good descendant of wealth who has lost it all, is now penniless, and has gone off with another woman.

Bitty and her mom are struggling financially, but the arrival of Miss Kitty and the chance discovery of her social media appeal has changed everything. Bitty now has sponsors, a high-powered agent, and all the tools needed to thrive online, and real money is flowing in. At least, it was. With Miss Kitty gone, the family's income is on the line.

The case presents a slew of challenges for Chet and Bernie. For one thing, a potential witness is a pig (Senor Piggy) who may be in possession of an important piece of evidence. For another, it seems like a possible perp has been killed twice—and there's evidence implicating Bernie.
