In Betty Jean Craige's sixth Witherston Murder Mystery, Jorge and Jaime Arroyo own a zoo dedicated to rehabilitating wild animals and restoring endangered species. A bizarre set of events puts Zoo Arroyo in the news. A stranger dies in the wolves' enclosure. A wolf whelps a wolf-wolverine chimera. A bear delivers a bear-wolf chimera.
Are these events related to a beautiful scientist's ambition to win a prize for biological innovation? Is the genetic engineer enamored of her responsible for the appropriation of the animals' wombs? In Life and Death at Zoo Arroyo, Jorge and Jaime wonder: Is nature in the twenty-first century man-made? Life and Death at Zoo Arroyo is the sixth book in her Witherston Murder Mystery series, which includes Downstream, Fairfield's Auction, Dam Witherston, Saxxons in Witherston, and Death in Potter's Woods.
