"DCI Harry Grimm is weary of humanity's evil. Dragged to the middle of nowhere during the darkest of hours, he's enraged by grisly evidence of a horrific illegal dog fight. And when the mutilated remains turn out to be a gamekeeper's stolen pet, the gritty detective senses he has a solid lead after learning of a long-running feud. Immediately putting his team on the case, Grimm worries the stakes may be escalating when the animal's owner is beaten and left for dead. And though the tough investigator puts his nose to the ground and follows the bloody clues, he fears there's only one shot to apprehend the real monster. Can he bring a loathsome criminal to justice before the savagery turns deadly?"--Back cover.… (plus d'informations)

My Thoughts:
I am a dog person. I love dogs! So, this book hits just a little bit too close to home!

Fly has a companion! Miss cutie pie Smudge!!

I whinged on a review of a previous book in this series that there was an element of predictability in the book. Well, here it is again. I saw who the perp was a mile away. However, I do not begrudge this series for this because it gave me hours of reading pleasure! It brought the rating of the plot a bit down, though.

Another thing, aren't police is supposed to be trained to notice signs and symptoms of abuse?! Because it is pretty obvious to me. Why can't PCSO Jim see it? I saw this "stupid" element before in previous books. Then it kinda faded away and I was happy with this series. However, here it is again... Let's just hope that it is not here to stay!

Obviously Aubrey Parsons was reading a slightly different manuscript to the ebook sold to me by amazon because the ebook and the audiobook didn't always match. Like on location 227 of 330 of the kindle ebook, the ebook reads "Anna" while I hear the narrator saying "Alice". The ebook was right by the way, because the vicar's name is Anna.
