Wild at Heart #12 End of the Race

Maggie (a vet voulenter) is excited to go on a trip to a Grey Hound race track, but when she gets there Maggie is surprised to find that racing dogs (even if they fall during the race.) are forced against there wil to race. Can maggie stop the abusing of these dogs before it's to late?!? I found this book exciting to read and very informitive about how Grey Hound race tracks do miss treat there dogs.
