Other than the trailer park left to her by her deceased daddy, Amy's favorite treasure is Jagger, her 180-pound bullmastiff. One day while she is away, Clayton, her best friend’s scumbag boyfriend sneaks into her yard and takes the dog. His prize fighting pit bull was killed during its last match, costing a lot of bad people a lot of money. To make up for his dog's losses, and to save his own life, Clayton enlists the help of a medical student dropout to turn Jagger into a killing machine by pumping him full of experimental drugs and muscle enhancers. Now Jagger is a monster, a beast that can't feel pain, with an unquenchable thirst for blood. He quickly breaks out of his pen and starts making his way home, tearing apart anyone in his path on his way to the one he feels has betrayed him the most—Amy. "JAGGER is Kristopher Rufty's best work to date. It's a harrowing journey into the heart of rural darkness that readers won't soon forget." - Bryan Smith, author of Slowly We Rot and Strange Ways "Kristopher Rufty's latest will lunge snapping for your jugular! Not for the faint of heart, JAGGER is full of sharp teeth and the tang of blood. Fans of Rufty's will rejoice!" - Ronald Malfi, author of December Park "This is as visceral and gut wrenching as horror gets.” - Hunter Shea, author of The Montauk Monster and Island of the Forbidden "Jagger is a fleshed out, vicious and brutal novel that shows humanity at its worst. It’ll rip at your heartstrings and burrow under your skin. It’ll piss you off. Yeah, it’s filled with violence and scumbags that deserve what’s coming to them, but at the same time it’s got feeling and tenderness, which is what makes this such a fantastic and wicked read. So buckle in for this generation’s Cujo." -David Bernstein, author of The Unhinged and Witch Island "A 'roid raging, modern canine Frankenstein's monster, Jagger will never be your beast of burden. In the fine tradition of killer dog novels like CUJO and HELL HOUND, JAGGER ends up being far more tender than a book with this much bloody mayhem has any right to." --Adam Cesare, author of Video Night and The Summer Job

From "The Horror Fiction Review" By Christine Our treatment of animals in general is a tricky mess of a moral quandary, whether we’re eating them, training them to work or perform, keeping them as pets, etc. Everybody has their own lines drawn. But I wish more people had their lines drawn somewhere short of making innocent creatures fight for our amusement.(heck, I’m dubious about the entire concept of Pokemon-type scenarios, and those are imaginary cartoon critters … though I do love me some robotic combat; we should have more of that, bring back BattleBots, Deadblow forever!) (edited to add, OMG, the very day I wrote this review, the news broke, YESSSS!)Dogfighting seems like its own special brand of pure evil, and it’s at the heart of this story. Jagger is a good dog, loyal and loving, devoted to his person. Amy, in turn, is devoted to her dog; he’s not just best friend and companion but her family and whole life.Jagger’s also a huge dog, and when a desperate jerk needs to make back some money after his previous star fighter gets killed, well, someone who’d do dogfights wouldn’t be above dognapping, either. Or above some, ah, performance enhancing treatments. Then there’s the training, which of course has got to be cruel to bring out the meanness, to give the beast the taste for blood.This is an agonizing, uncomfortable read for anybody with any sort of animal-loving conscience. As with another literary big dog, Cujo, you can’t blame Jagger for what happens … it isn’t his fault … he’s only reacting to betrayal and mistreatment. You’re simultaneously rooting for him when he turns on his tormentors, and in anguish for him.This is also, to add a tangential note, a totally breast-obsessed story in the most written-by-a-dude Laymonesque tradition. I don’t know any women who spend as much time thinking about their bosoms – every movement, every jiggle, every contact with clothing – as do the female characters in this book. Also Laymonesque is the amount of rump-mentioning and other such overall T&A.For sheer carnage, all out violence and gore with a healthy helping of sex thrown in, you won’t go wrong with Jagger. It’ll probably enrage you if you have any sort of a conscience, and if you’re a dog-person, you’ll be a wreck.

Jagger is a fast paced thrill ride full of terror. I was hooked from page one. The characters are easy to care for, or hate in some cases, and I couldn't wait to see what happened next. Parts of this book had me in tears. They were truly horrifying and hard to read as a dog lover but worked in this story. If you love horror, especially animal attack horror, you'll want to grab this book! A solid 4.5 star read.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. A Great Read. By Lorraine Taylor Once again Kristopher Rufty delivers another fast-paced page-turner.I'm a dog lover and recent owner of a Newfoundland puppy, so I already felt apprehensive when I picked this book up. To Amy, Jagger is her life, her best friend and constant companion. When a prized fighting pit bull is killed in the ring, unscrupulous people who view dogs not as man's best friend but as a lucrative business set their sights on Jagger. At 180 pounds, Jagger is big enough to handle a special drug, concocted by a cruel mind. The hope to turn Jagger into a killing machine becomes a reality when the drug takes and Jagger turns.But then Jagger breaks free of his captors, and the carnage begins. In Jagger's mind, he has been betrayed, hurt and abandoned by the one person he loved – Amy. It was interesting to read chapters from Jagger's point of view as he leaves a trail of mutilated bodies in his search for Amy, all traces of the dog he once was destroyed by the drug designed to mould him into a vicious killer.The supporting cast of the book all played a part in the story and the sub-plots weaved together to bring the book to its final conclusion.I'd recommend this book to all fans of horror and suspense.
