Publisher Description
This riveting chapter from the popular fox-hunting mystery series of New York Times bestselling author Rita Mae Brown abounds with thrilling hunts and the breathtaking scenery of the Virginia countryside. But scandal wins the day.
“Sister” Jane Arnold, master of the Jefferson Hunt Club, must contend with unruly Crawford Howard, who purchases his own pack of hounds and establishes a rival club. Then, things really get interesting. During the audit of a local company, millions of dollars are reported missing. It’s not long before there’s a body count connected to the missing money—and the violence hits a little too close to home for Sister’s liking.
The hunt is on amongst Virginia’s gentility. And with Sister leading the way, big bank accounts and fine horsemanship will offer little protection for those with something to hide.

"I enjoy the light touch of RMB's animal mysteries, and like RMB, I find my own pets 'speak' to me and each other, so I have no trouble with the animal characters in these books."

" Enjoyable mystery if you like Brown's anecdotes about country life in central Virginia and talking animals. The plot was not as engaging as some of the past books in this series, but there was further development of recurring characters. "

" I cannot rate the actual book. I never "read" it. The CD reader is the author and she should stick to writing. This was so poorly done that I never made it beyond the middle of the first CD. "
