Nero goes to Rome (The Dogs of Pompeii)

Nero is no ordinary dog. His bravery has earned him the respect of all the Dogs of Pompeii. But, as he's the first to admit, he has a talent for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Trapped in a delivery van heading for Rome, he encounters a sinister stranger who, to avoid capture by the police, clamps a collar around his neck – not a dog collar, but a priceless Vatican treasure. Lost in Rome and pursued by crooks who will stop at nothing to retrieve their loot, Nero seeks help from his young friend Gianni. But no one can discover the secret of the clasp, and the collar remains locked around Nero's neck. When Caroline joins the chase, the three friends are reunited in another action-packed adventure that culminates in a life-or-death climax played out in the maze of catacombs far beneath the Eternal City. Nero goes to Rome is the continuing story of Nero and the Dogs of Pompeii, in which our heroes find that treasure can turn up where you least expect it.
