Animal Instincts - Alan Titchmarsh ... Sanctuary, Kit Lavery returns to Britain from Australia to sort out his father's affairs. His visit is intended to be brief, but on arrival at the down-at-heel animal sanctuary, Kit finds it staffed by two very determined women. Elizabeth Punch and Jess Wetherby. Elizabeth is a woman with a mission - to save animals from inconsiderate man. And Jess Supple has one burning desire - to keep alive the work of the old man who took her under his wing when she was a placard-waving hunt saboteur.

It seems that blood may be spilt before the Animal Sanctuary, with its assorted inhabitants, is out of the woods.

The area of the reserve is described brilliantly, but the sex scenes are definitely flowery. And how Kit de...more
