    About this ebook

    This book is a clean Cozy Mystery short story that does not contain any foul language, sexual situations, witches, or paranormal events.

     

    Holly's old truck wouldn't start after hitching up the trailer to pick up a new schooling horse for Happy Hollow Stables.  Her assistant, Mckenzie, recommended that she have the truck towed into the local mechanic in Hill City.

     

    Once the mechanic completed his inspection, he explained that her truck was simply too old and not worth fixing and referred Holly to his business partner that sells used cars in the attached building.
        
    Could the cost of a new truck be murder?

She had checked online for any local schooling horses for sale in the area before she went to bed the previous night. This mare had caught her attention so thoroughly that she’d hardly slept.
