Origins of the Black Collar
The world’s most unlikely spy duo is back — and this time, the stakes have never been higher.
Mollie and Tobie, two Newfipoo agents from the elite P.A.W. agency, are thrown into their most dangerous mission yet. What begins as a daring chase across a frozen fortress in Meowgrad spirals into a globe-trotting thriller: sandstorms in the Sahara, neon battles in Tokyo, break-ins at Buckingham Palace, and secret experiments that twist allies into enemies.
At the heart of it all lies the Black Collar — not just a weapon, but a living code. Ancient and alien, it doesn’t simply control technology… it becomes it. The fragments Mollie and Tobie recover pulse like heartbeats, whispering with their own will, and slowly, terrifyingly, begin to choose their hosts.
With the cyber-feline cabal rising under the ruthless Gruber, and the mysterious hacker Cipher selling riddles to both sides, Mollie and Tobie must navigate betrayal, shadow wars, and their own fears. Even Tabbatha, once their friend, may be lost to the Collar’s influence.
This third installment in the Code Name P.A.W. series blends the humor of Pixar, the thrills of Mission Impossible, and the heart of Bond with fur. Each chapter is structured like a mission file: brief, action, debrief — creating a cinematic page-turner for readers aged 8–14 (and adventurous adults who still believe in spy dogs).
Packed with gadgets like the Chaos Cloak, biscuit drones, and a bark-activated grapple leash, plus dazzling global set pieces, this book takes the P.A.W. universe to the next level. But at its core, it’s still about what Mollie and Tobie stand for: teamwork, loyalty, and refusing to give up — even when the enemy is everywhere.
And the ending? Let’s just say the Meowtrix isn’t finished. It’s only just begun.
If you love spy adventures, animal heroes, and stories that mix danger with laugh-out-loud humor, this is the book for you.
