One fine, sunny day in Brooklyn, Rock-O the miniature schnauzer takes his daily walk at 12:30 p.m. as his flower shop usual. But today turns out to be very unusual indeed as Rock-O witnesses a mob hit on Tom Terrier in. Telling Commander Rex Wrinkles everything he saw, Rock-O suddenly becomes the key witness in the trial of Joey Two Paws, chief muscle for the Bambino crime family. When Rock-O points to Joey Two Paws as the killer, the courtroom erupts and the murderous bulldog is sentenced to life in solitary confinement. As he is led out, however, he ominously warns Rock-O that because he barked on Joey, the Bambino Family will see to it that the little schnauzer sleeps with the fishes. A wildly imaginative and sharp-witted suspense thriller, Jerry Ferrara's debut is an outrageously entertaining escapade that, in the mold of the classic Bugs Bunny shorts, is as fun for adults as it is for kids.

But the Bambino family has its paws in everything, and soon enough, Rock-O's whereabouts are known. They send Vito and Carmine Bones and the Sambuca Brothers to Florida to take care of business. As things escalate, a cast of characters including Agent Jess, the International Counsel of K9's Sir Bassett Hound, and Rock-O's hosts Jerry and Maureen come together to take on the mob and try and save Rock-O in a no-holds barred fight to the finish An enchanting, spirited, and raucous crime spree across canine lines, Ferrara presents a noir-inspired adventure full of tension and out-and-out fun. As thrilling as it is riotously funny, The Rock-O File will keep you on the edge of your seat laughing until the exciting climax that will leave you panting for more
