Summary:
When visiting doctor Lewis Wilkins is attacked by vicious dogs, and several pet dogs in the area around Jarrett Creek go missing, Police Chief Samuel Craddock suspects that a dog fighting ring is operating nearby. He must tread carefully, since lawmen who meddle with dog fighting put their lives at risk. Craddock's focus on the investigation is thrown off by a new woman in his life, as well as his accidental acquisition of a puppy. Craddock soon discovers that the public face Wilkins presented was at odds with his private actions, and a terrible mistake led to his disgrace as a physician and arrival in Jarrett Creek.
