Stop them dead / Peter James.

James, Peter, 1948- (author.).

Summary:

A ruthless crime. A race against time. When a young farmer confronts intruders in the middle of the night, he has no idea that just minutes later he will be left dying in a pool of blood. What's more chilling is what the perpetrators were willing to kill for. At the scene of the crime, Detective Superintendent Roy Grace soon realizes this is no isolated robbery gone wrong, but the tip of the iceberg of a nationwide crime wave in which ruthless organized gangs are making more money from the illegal trade in dogs than they do in drugs.

    A ruthless crime. A race against time.


    When a young farmer confronts intruders in the middle of the night he has no idea that just minutes later he will be left dying in a pool of blood. What’s more chilling is what the perpetrators were willing to kill for.

    At the scene of the crime, Detective Superintendent Roy Grace soon realises this is no isolated robbery gone wrong but the tip of the iceberg of a nationwide crime wave, in which ruthless organised gangs are making more money from the illegal trade in dogs than drugs. A trade which pits him against some ruthless people who will kill anyone who gets in their way, because where there is greed, there is murder.
