It's too good to last. The biggest case on DI Charlie Priest's books is a petty thief pinching underwear from the washing-lines of unsuspecting housewives, and his love-life is looking up too, in the form of local schoolteacher Rosie Barraclough. Then someone starts tampering with food in the local supermarket and two people are hospitalised. Charlie must act fast to halt a media frenzy and prevent a murder. Things get worse, as intelligence reaches him that an organised dog-fighting ring has set up operations nearby - and it seems that Rosie is hiding something from him...
How do you feel?
