WHEN IT COMES TO SLEUTHING, SHE’S NOT HORSING
AROUND... When full-time vet and part-time sleuth Jessica Popper is
asked to treat a billionaire's ailing horse, she gets a
deadly glimpse into the lifestyles of the rich and
felonious…. Murder gallops after Jessie when an emergency call sends the
traveling vet to a posh Long Island estate with her one-eyed
Dalmatian, Lou, and her tailless Westie, Max. A prized
Arabian steed needs minor medical care–but it’s the rider
who grabs Jess’s attention. The handsome young horseman
exudes plenty of animal magnetism as he canters across the
field…and then takes an inexplicable, fatal fall. The dead man was one of the finest polo players in the
world, but it was no accident that killed him. The culprit
was poison. And as Jess soon discovers, a number of people
had the means, motive, and opportunity for foul play, from
the hostile barn manager to the businessman’s disgruntled
wife. But Jess will have to temper her feline instinct with
good old-fashioned horse sense if she’s going to stop a
killer from leading a certain sleuth to her death.
