Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Jennie McGrady's Labor Day weekend promises relaxation and fun when she visits a fur farm run by family acquaintances. Jennie's anticipation of the trip grows when she learns Scott Chambers, an old friend, has taken a job at the very same farm. But on her first night there, the mink are released from a neighboring farm and Jennie fears the sometimes volatile Scott may have been behind it.

Scott Chambers' participation in extreme animal rights activities is in the past or so he claims. Jennie wants to believe him, but his arrival to the area just before the mink release seems more than coincidence. And when Bob Sutherland, the affected farmer, turns up missing, suspicion falls on Scott.

Aleshia Sutherland makes no secret of her involvement with the radical Animal Rights Movement and has been kicked out of her parents home because of it. Does she despise her father's line of work so much that she would hurt him?

Can Jennie look beyond her personal feelings to find the truth?

This is the best Jennie McGrady book I have read! It all starts when Jennie and her best friend Lisa are going up to an old friends mink farm to visit for the weekend! Jennie is also excited because Scott is there and she can't wait to see him! When they get there, though, a mystery has been released! Someone has let the neighbors minks loose, not to mention other things! This is the best I have read! I do wish that her dad had been in it more! He has just been introduced and he has barly been in the books!
