While investigating the death of his mentor, Dr. Stephenson uncovers a plot against the animals he has sworn to protect.Hollywood starlet Aubrey Fairbanks and her entourage of activists descend on the picturesque upstate New York village of Jefferson to protest animal testing at the cosmetic company that is Jefferson's lifeblood. Kent Stephenson is the town's veterinarian and a lifelong resident. He is licking his wounds after a vicious divorce that took away his daughter and hiding from the world in his profession surrounded by animals that love unconditionally. But his brother, the police chief, has other plans for Kent and recruits him to defend their town. What seems to be a simple matter of negotiation soon escalates to arson, then murder. More strangers arrive in town and Kent's animal patients begin disappearing. Kent and Aubrey's relationship turns from blood enemies to respect and commitment as they risk their lives to protect Jefferson, find the murderers, and crush a cult that thrives on all that animal lovers despise.

I did feel that there was a touch of over-explanation through the book. The author has a skilful voice, and I don't think it was necessary for him to dip into so many characters' heads to get across how they were feeling. At times, it felt like the author was tapping me on the shoulder and pointing something out in an attempt to ensure I didn't miss it. But I'm the kind of reader who likes to form my own impressions and then be pleased or surprised when the truth is revealed at a later stage.
I see this is the first book in a series, and I'm curious to find out what happens next.
