Lou MacMayor, president of the Institute of Nationalized Humane Health Care, has the solution to America's health insurance problems. He's figured out how to take a huge bite out of costs by using brilliantly trained Swedish Elkhounds to sniff out, then snuff out, those costly, disease-carrying people who send premiums skyrocketing.

Though the cost benefit of culling the herd of humanity looks great on paper, in reality it's fairly messy business, and the dog attacks plaguing the U.S. have come to the attention of CURE. Harold Smith wants to know who let the dogs out, and why they are attacking the elderly and infirm. Remo's happy to turn MacMayor and his Scandinavian breeder into hamburger - but it's the elusive, mysterious dog handler known as The Foreman whose extraordinary skills give new meaning to the phrase "dog eat dog."

Breathlessly action-packed and boasting a winning combination of thrills, humour and mysticism, the Destroyer is one of the bestselling series of all time.
