Barking Dogs

*** "A real page-turner... Not to be missed." - Locus *** Mitch Helwig is a cop who has gone over the edge. He's got a Barking Dog-an infallible, illegal lie-detector, worn under street clothes - and he's tired of being lied to. He's a criminal's worst nightmare. **** "The near-future cop-thriller is a growing sub-genre, in which old-time heroes walk the dark and subtly altered mean streets of a cityscape we can all identify from Blade Runner. Barking Dogs is the first novel to turn Toronto into one of those darkly menacing cities." -The Toronto Star ****
