Fifty-Four Pigs: A Dr. Bannerman Vet Mystery

內容簡介

內容簡介 NATIONAL BESTSELLER "Original, well-constructed, with a cast of interesting characters." -- Ian Hamilton, author of the Ava Lee series "A delicious read." -- Iona Whishaw, author of the Lane Winslow mystery series "A charming mystery." -- Publishers Weekly A swine barn explodes near a lakeside town, putting veterinarian Dr. Peter Bannerman on a collision course with murder and a startling conspiracy. Peter is an odd duck, obsessed with logic and measurable facts, an obsession he puts to good use in his veterinary practice. When a murder is connected to the swine barn explosion and his friend Tom becomes the prime suspect, Peter feels compelled to put his reasoning skills, and his dog Pippin's remarkable nose, to use to help clear him. The situation darkens with a second murder and a series of break-ins, including at Peter's house and clinic, but Peter has a hard time knowing when he is out of his depth, despite warnings from his brother-in-law Kevin, an RCMP officer. Ultimately Peter finds himself out in the middle of a frozen lake during a blizzard, fighting for his life and confronting a horrifying realization he had been blind to all along.
