The Hand That Feeds You

"Grabs you in its jaws and doesn't let go . . . This [is] a truly unique mystery series worth following!"
--Tess Gerritsen, Author of Harvest

When Willard Hanes shows up at Dr. Doolittle's Pet Care Clinic with a battered, nearly dead pit bull, Palm Springs vet Andi Pauling fears the worst. More disturbing is the mute, withdrawn little girl accompanying him.

Later, Hanes is gruesomely murdered, and the child--Nikki--vanishes into thin air. A stack of sordid videos at the murder scene reveals a horrifying scenario. Driven to find the child, Andi dares to infiltrate Hanes' s nightmare world where she becomes a mole on the illegal dogfight circuit--and fair game for a vicious pack of very human predators. . . .

"Read this book. . . . You'll love it."
--Alan Russell, Author of Multiple Wounds
