“The Animal Lover,” by Karl Hausman. A Vigilante’s Vow, Fighting Cruelty with Deadly Justice

“The Animal Lover” is a stirring and interesting story of justice, retribution, and compassion written by respected author Karl Hausman. A brilliant veterinarian with a troubled past, Dr. Trudi Miller becomes a merciless predator in this powerful book, punishing those who mistreat the defenseless. Trudi makes the distinction between hero and monster hazy with each life she claims, prompting readers to wonder: at what point does justice turn into something much more threatening?

Dr. Trudi Miller, a skilled veterinarian by day and a vicious predator by night, is introduced to readers in “The Animal Lover.” When Trudi sets out on a mission to eradicate those who mistreat the defenseless, her commitment to animal rescue takes a tragic turn. Trudi has taken 58 lives in her quest for retribution, leaving law enforcement perplexed as they try to identify this ruthless, cunning murderer.

Shaped by a past filled with violence and trauma, Trudi’s vigilante crusade spares no mercy for abusers, most of whom happen to be men. With her calculated methods and keen intellect, she remains one step ahead of authorities. But how long can her mission continue before she is caught? More importantly, is she even willing to stop?

Karl skillfully creates a nuanced figure in Trudi by fusing moral ambiguity with psychological strain. By bringing attention to the frequently disregarded violence done to animals, “The Animal Lover” pushes readers to consider the boundaries between justice and retaliation.

“The Animal Lover” is now available for at amazon.com.
