"Although Jude has had her share of eccentric clients over
the years, she's never been asked to apply her healing
touch to a lame horse before. With a reluctant Carole
providing transportation, the women arrive at Long Bamber
Stables only to stumble upon the body of a man beyond
medical help - alternative or otherwise." "The victim,
Walter Fleet, was once an equestrian champion before an
accident ruined his career. And working in the stables, he
spent more time grooming himself to impress the ladies than
he did grooming the horses." The police attribute the
stabbing death to the mysterious "Horse Ripper," who's been
mutilating horses across West Sussex - and who Walter
obviously caught in the act. But considering Walter's track
record out of the saddle, Jude and Carole find that there
are plenty of suspects - including Walter's put-upon wife
and more than a few jealous husbands - who wanted Walter
put out to pasture.
