Horsing Around with Murder

Book 1 of the Senior Sleuth Series Series

by Maureen Fisher

After retiring from a long career in accounting, Abby Foster expects a peaceful life, but those plans vanish when she and her two sisters inherit a run-down dude ranch. Suddenly, Abby is forced to navigate the complexities of managing a business, wrangling family dynamics, and—worst of all—dealing with horses, which she considers the most terrifying creatures on earth.

To save the ranch from financial ruin, the sisters decide to host a horse-breeding symposium. However, when a cowboy dies under suspicious circumstances, Abby is certain it was murder. With no one taking her claims seriously, she enlists the help of her sister and the ranch's attractive barn manager to launch a covert investigation. Navigating a chaotic environment filled with quirky guests, hidden drugs, deep-seated deceit, and an uncooperative stallion, Abby must solve the mystery while finding herself caught in an unexpected late-life romance that raises the stakes even higher.
