Synopsis
From bestselling author Rita Mae Brown, another clever, endearing story in the fox-hunting mystery series. Lushly described scenes from the hunt, talking animals who help solve the murder, and the beloved Sister Jane reunite to continue the New York Times bestselling mystery series. Book five, which focuses on the hound--who will grace the jacket-draws us into the murky financial scandals of foxhunting society-including a sharp-tongued, wheelchair-bound hellion of a bookkeeper, and a rich former hunt club donor who thinks he can out-class the intrepid Sister Jane with the purchase of his own pack of hounds. Only Sister Jane, along with her furry friends who, per usual, discuss the intrigues amongst themselves, is able to uncover the mystery of the missing money, and the dead body! And keep in mind, in American foxhunting, the foxes always get away--so this is a series for animal lovers as well as the sporting crowd!
Reviews
It may say 12 discs, but I only received 6? Read by author. She should leave the reading to Kate Forbes who reads Ms. Brown's other mystery series. Ms. Brown doesn't have the voice or voices for this type of work. This says it is book 5 in a series. The only other book available on booksfree.com is #4. I have no info. on the first 3 books. This book has a little bit more murder mystery. In addition to talking hounds, foxes, horses, owls, cats & crows, there are otters. Like book 4, book 5 is all about foxhunting with a little murder thrown in. You could skip book 4 and not be lost in book 5.
