Rich and flamboyant Honeybelle Hensley, the most colorful
character in Mule Stop, Texas, dies a suspicious death
and enrages the whole town by leaving her worldly fortune
to the most undeserving recipient-her dog. The
incorrigible Miss Ruffles is a Texas Cattle Cur, not a
cuddly lapdog, and when Honeybelle was alive, Miss
Ruffles liked nothing better than digging up Honeybelle's
famous rose garden after breakfast, chasing off the UPS
man before lunch and terrorizing the many gentleman
callers who came knocking at cocktail hour.
But now Miss Ruffles is in danger, and it's up to Sunny
McKillip, the unwilling dogsitter, to keep her safe.
Sunny is new to Texas, and sometimes she feels as if
she's fallen into an alien world. If it isn't the pistol-
packing football fans and the sweet-talking, yet ruthless
ladies of the garden club who confound her, it's the
rowdy rodeo hounds and the tobacco-spitting curmudgeon at
Critter Control who have her buffaloed. With a killer on
the loose and a cowboy lawyer keeping a suspicious eye on
her every move, Sunny needs all the help she can get
understanding how Texans think. There's more to
Honeybelle's death than meets this Yankee's eye, and
Sunny has Miss Ruffles to protect, too. It's a bucking
bull ride of an adventure for Sunny, and if she's not
careful she might just get killed . . . or her heart
lassoed.
