After being horribly mistreated at a government animal research facility, Snitter and Rowf escape into the isolation, and terror, of the wilderness. Aided only by a fox they call ''the Tod,'' the two dogs must struggle to survive in their new environment. When the starving dogs attack some sheep, they are labeled ferocious man-eating monsters, setting off a great dog hunt that is later intensified by the fear that the dogs could be carriers of the bubonic plague.

Humans at their worst and prose at it's best. Adams writing is superb, the plot intricate and flawless, the characters very plausible. An all round compelling read but be warned it is confronting, I did quite a bit of quirming.
Highly recommended.

On to the shelves.
