West Cork bow! West Cork bow wow!

Date of release: December 2023

2020: I was in Ireland on behalf of Italian Public Network (radio project), Splendid Sicily (tv documentary) and me myself (book).

I was there together with my wife, and Pedro, our doggy.

At a certain point Pedro received a call from Sicily and was encharged, by Don Ciro (the Dogfather!) to search for the damned green bone!

And our life changed!

West Cork Bow! West Cork Bow Wow!
presents:

Inspector Pedro and the elusive search for that dart green bone

Discovering the unknown lush green land of West Cork.

COMING SOON!

Inspector Pedro travels from Sicily to West Cork searching for the prized green bone.

It’s the only one missing in the Dogfather Don Ciro’s (photo) collection.

Inspector Pedro is on a relentless search all around West Cork through castles, forests, rivers, towns, beaches, markets and lighthouses.

And every once in a he stops for a nice cafe’ or lunch to refuel him on his quest for the list green bone.

With the help of his distant cousin Mollie the Sprollie from Cape Clear, Jack and Biddie, two swans from Glen and humans like Siobhan Cronin of the Southern Star, David the man of the forest, Willie the smoking neighbor of Pedro… and Tom Tommyfly Pedro’s inseparable doggie drone.

While Inspector Pedro is searching high and low in the greenery of West cork for the damn green bone, back home his mamma is mixing a brew of strange stones with odd people inside them.

Lady Bea, Pedro’s assistant gives him the inside scoop about where to find all the good people inside the forest.

In a surprise twist, Pedro will find the green bone …
