When horse trainer Annie Carson rescues a beautiful thoroughbred from a roadside rollover, she knows the horse is lucky to be alive…unlike the driver.

Book Description
At a competitive trail competition Cat Enright finds the body of one of the riders, which ultimately causes Cat to doubt her closest friends and neighbors. When hunky country music star Keith Carson saves Cat's life, she struggles to remember details that can point her toward the killer--before the killer comes for her. Aided by her usual eclectic cast, including the (possibly) psychic mare, Sally Blue, if Cat wins in the end, she may lose what she loves the most. Praise for the Cat Enright series: "The strength of a great detective series-Travis McGee, Harry Bosch, Sherlock Holmes-is not the mysteries, but theexperience of hanging out with a remarkable friend whom you wish you knew in real life, who is so interesting that it takes more than one book to get to know her. Cat Enright is one such character, and Cat's stories are ones we we will inevitably enjoy, over and over." --Michael Guillebeau, author of the award-winning The Mad Librarian and Don of the Q"The mark of a storyteller is when the reader begins to genuinely care about the characters in the story. Lisa Wysocky captures both people and horses." --Jean Abernethy, author, cartoonist, and creator of Fergus the Horse "A great read, and a great ride! I loved it!" --Robin Hutton, author of the NYT bestseller Sgt. Reckless: America's War Horse

The lean years following World War I can lead to desperate acts—even in the quiet English village of Walmsley Parva. When a series of burglaries seems to culminate in murder, brash American Beryl Helliwell and proper Brit Edwina Davenport are eager to solve the case . . . World-renowned adventuress Beryl Helliwell cited for “reckless” motoring? Why, the very idea! Constable Gibbs just has it in for her. The solution? Charm the magistrate, of course. But days after Beryl's appearance before the bench, she and Edwina pay a visit to the magistrate only to find his home ransacked and the man himself lying dead at the bottom of a grand staircase. Given the state of the house, his death appears to be connected to a rash of robberies in the village. Declan O’Shea, the handsome helper Beryl hired to assist their aged gardener Simpkins, falls under suspicion after having had his own run-in with the magistrate—but mostly, Beryl believes, because he’s Irish. While unofficially looking into the magistrate's murder, the ladies are hired in their official capacity as private inquiry agents to find census reports that have gone missing. Is someone trying to hide something from the census takers—and could that theft have anything to do with the magistrate’s death? Beryl and Edwina are once again in fine form as they engage in a little reckless sleuthing to bring these assorted mysteries to a speedy conclusion. . . .
