Blood Money
by Collett, Chris
DI Tom Mariner is about to take a well-earned break when six-week-old
Jessica Klinnemann is abducted from the cr che at a local day nursery.
His leave cancelled, Mariner becomes the lead on the highly public case.
But what at first appears to be a random kidnap gradually begins to
look like a meticulously planned operation. The motive remains unclear,
until Mariner discovers that the baby's father works for a scientific
research company that has long been the target of animal rights
activists.
Two days later when the incident comes to an astonishing conclusion, a
crude note seems to confirm that that animal rights protesters were
behind the scare. But when one of the cr che workers is killed in a hit
and run, the case is blown wide open...
