animals. Elephant poachers in Chad, Russian big-game hunters of endangered species, dog fighters in Atlanta, European food execs who gorge ducks to make paté, gorilla hunters in the Congo, ivory merchants in China. Those who torture animals are not safe... Working with two California detectives, Chang races to unmask the killer, as his spree ramps up. But the killer's motives and history are far deeper than anyone realizes, and the truth of his rampage leads on a wild chase from the streets of Shanghai around the globe... Who is the real animal? "Animal is a brilliant and ferocious thriller. A tale of hideous inhumanity and very rough justice. Highly recommended!"-Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of Rage and V-Wars "I promise you it will grab hold of you and not let go; it will inspire you, it will anger you and it will live uneasily in your mind for a long time."-David Fisher, New York Times best- selling author of Lincoln's Last Trial and Never Turn Your Back on an Angus Cow
