Dr. Metifunger's Transdimensional Veterinary Clinic - Paperback

by Dennis Todd Strubbe (Author)

When a pug vanishes into thin air during a rectal exam, Dr. Mabel Sassani realizes that her new place of employment isn't the backward little hole-in-the-wall she thought it was. It's a hole in the universe.

Welcome to Dr. Metifunger's Transdimensional Veterinary Clinic, where a mostly stable portal room connects five identical veterinary hospitals, each in its own dimension and every one of them a front for a transdimensional smuggling operation. Dr. Metifunger's partner, Karen, runs the "business" side of the enterprise, and Mabel soon discovers the real reason Karen hired her. An anti-smuggling task force has zeroed in on the clinics, and Mabel is the latest pawn in a multi-dimensional game of chess her boss is playing with the authorities.

But Mabel has no intention of being used by anyone. Nor will she tolerate an employer who puts her patients' well being in jeopardy, no matter how weird and dangerous some of those patients may be. Determined to put an end to the clinic's illicit dealings and free herself from her boss' manipulations, she initiates her own amateur sting operation, risking her veterinary license, her budding romantic relationship and her life to bring down a criminal mastermind who just smuggled in the ultimate upper hand.
