    About this ebook

    There are human predators in the hills. Can Gail McCarthy discover who they are before she becomes the next victim? Gail McCarthy has turned 50, and is considering resuming her career as a horse veterinarian. Life interrupts her plans when she embarks on a solitary ride and finds a fellow equestrian shot dead. Gail’s friend, Detective Jeri Ward, heads up the investigation, and Gail is drawn into the escalating chain of events when a second rider is murdered. She must make sense of this threat to her beloved hills and trails...or she may be the sniper’s next victim.

    “If you haven’t discovered Laura Crum yet, please jump at any chance to catch up on the series. The Gail McCarthy books are among my very favorite contemporary mysteries and Crum is, for my money, the successor to mystery giant Dick Francis.†-- Ron Miller, Mystery! A Celebration

      In 1978, Diana Nyad, then 29, decided to swim from Havana to Key West, Florida. Like everything else this endurance athlete does, she made the challenge seem like no biggie: a natural progression, even, for someone whose surname is derived from the w

      Happily married and seven months pregnant, horse vet Gail McCarthy is transitioning from busy, successful, go-to practitioner to mommy-to-be. Which means a lot of giving up - her practice, her truck, her career (at least temporarily), but also a lot of gaining. (And not just the weight she's packed on, either!) But when Gail's cousins calls worried about mysterious goings on, a poisoned dog and a blinded horse, Gail can't resist doing some poking around. Of course, poking around isn't exactly safe, especially when you're heavily pregnant and moving none too quickly....Jealousy, greed, fear and a healthy dose of suspense make this one a quick read. Fans of the series may not like Gail's impending mommy-hood, but I'm interested to see how her sleuthing is affected by her relative lack of mobility. Will being tied to baby-strings keep Gail from getting into trouble in future installments? I sure hope not!
