    The concept of animal rights is a deeply philosophical and ethical issue that challenges our views on how animals should be treated and regarded in society. At its core, animal rights is the belief that animals, like humans, have inherent value and deserve certain protections from harm, exploitation, and abuse. This perspective asserts that animals are sentient beings capable of experiencing pain, fear, and pleasure, and thus, they should not be subjected to unnecessary suffering or exploitation for human gain. 
    Historically, animals have been viewed largely as property or resources for human use, whether in agriculture, industry, or even entertainment. Over time, however, a growing awareness of animal sentience and the recognition of their complex emotional and cognitive abilities have led to significant shifts in how societies regard and treat animals. The modern animal rights movement can trace its origins to the mid-19th century, with the establishment of the first animal protection laws and the formation of advocacy groups dedicated to the welfare of animals. 
    The industrial revolution marked a turning point in the relationship between humans and animals, as it saw the rise of factory farming, animal testing for medical and cosmetic purposes, and the widespread use of animals in entertainment. These practices sparked widespread concern about the ethics of animal use, leading to the formation of various animal welfare organizations, including the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) in 1866. These groups campaigned for more humane treatment of animals, but it wasn’t until the 20th century that the concept of animal rights as a broader ethical movement began to take shape.

    'An excellent procedural featuring a likable heroine and her talented canine partner'Kirkus Reviews
    Meet Sergeant Ali Wren and her trusty companion Officer Police Dog Wilson, a springer spaniel with a nose for trouble. Together they serve the small Yorkshire town of Heft, where everyone knows everyone else's business. And if they don't, that's a cause for concern…
    Ali, who has just returned home to Heft, needs all her diplomatic skills, not to mention a huge sense of humour, to navigate the requirements of her job. Drama lurks around every corner, from rogue parking in the disabled bays to a feud between the long-established Hooley bakery and a fancy new 'cakery-bakery'. When Brian Bright reports his wife Melody missing, at first Ali thinks it's just another routine case. The evidence overwhelmingly suggests that Melody has simply left, tired of playing a supporting role to Brian's obsession with classic cars and his first (dead) wife.
    But something niggles. When Ali and Wilson doggedly continue their investigation, they find there was more to Melody than anyone realised – and more to her disappearance too…
