The Doctor's Dog
Dean Cello is not your typical PI. At only thirty-one, he’s not divorced, alcoholic, or even that cynical. For nearly two years now, Dean has slowly but surely been growing the small business out of his Back Bay condo unit, performing such menial tasks as chasing down cheating spouses and deadbeat dads. Just when it appears he can’t sink any lower, a suburban doctor retains his services to find Sir Cedric of Winchester—a lost champion Airedale. But the case of the missing dog soon turns into a case of murder, and despite warnings from the state police, Dean feels compelled to investigate.
The mystery unfolds amidst the backdrop of Cello exchanging barbs with his sophomoric-but-knowledgeable friend—the irrepressible Sergeant Peter Perry of Boston’s Finest—and his growing romantic involvement with upstairs neighbor Nicole. The antics of Perry and his future father-in-law, as well as Dean’s wry sense of humor in relating the story, provide a liberal dose of humor to go along with the essential grit inherent in the genre.
