What happens when a long-time animal lover, -advocate, and -rescuer confronts a situation that pushes her animal-protection frustration to the breaking point? When Dr. Kiri Sumner, a practicing clinical psychologist and educator in the Albuquerque, New Mexico, area, witnesses shocking animal abuse, she's outraged. This is the final straw for her. It's clear that something must be done about this perpetrator (after she saves the badly injured dog). And it must be done NOW, especially after the authorities don't appear to be acting to apprehend the abuser. Despite her desire for unfettered revenge, she knows that whatever she does has to be legal ... although, it might be off-the-wall and pushing the envelope a little. But, most importantly, it has to have a significant psychological and public impact on the abuser. The situation demands retaliation in some fashion but executing the blood-thirsty physical revenge her heart desires is ethically problematic for her. What she finally decides to do is mostly legal and straightforward, albeit a little dissembling. Notwithstanding her cautious planning, the situation turns out to have unexpected and increasingly perilous consequences for her. Heartwarming, insightful, but sometimes frightening, it is a commentary on the unbreakable human-animal bond and what animal lovers feel they have to do to keep faith with animals and protect them. - R.N. O'Donnell This beautifully crafted story shows us that our love and respect for animals will always meet abuse challenges and, somehow, will find a way, no matter how long it takes, to overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles. - Ruth Tyler What a wonderful read! A must read ... very entertaining. - Katie Griffee Dr. Dayhoff has outdone herself. The author draws readers in and keep them enthralled, wondering how it all will be resolved. - Marilyn
