The best in crime and suspense you’ll read all year…

“Teenager” and “Brecon” might evoke fond memories of summer backpacking in the Welsh hills. Probably not the image of an adolescent girl’s body under a bridge in the middle of a winter night.

Found by the River Usk the next morning, nobody local knows who the victim is. DI Ben James and DS Erica Bevan find nothing nationwide either. So young, how could anyone not have reported her missing?

As soon as drugs enter the picture, it would be easy for the police to conclude she was just another tearaway who has taken the wrong path into drugs and crime.

But when ex-detective Heidi Holtz sees first hand and close to home how determined and ruthless dealers will use youngsters for their county lines operations, the case gets personal.

“Sister” Jane Arnold and her hounds must sniff out a thief with expensive taste when a string of missing paintings leads to murder in this exciting foxhunting mystery from New York Times bestselling author Rita Mae Brown.

“Cunning foxes, sensible hounds, and sweet-tempered horses are among the sparkling conversationalists in this charming series.”—The New York Times Book Review

Spring is peeking through the frost in Virginia, and though the hunting season is coming to a close, the foxes seem determined to put the members of the Jefferson Hunt Club through their paces. Sister and her friends are enjoying some of the best chases they’ve had all season when the fun is cut short by the theft of Crawford Howard’s treasured Sir Alfred Munnings painting of a woman in hunting attire riding sidesaddle. When another painting goes missing five days later—also a Munnings, also of a woman hunting sidesaddle—Sister Jane knows it’s no coincidence. Someone is stealing paintings of foxhunters from foxhunters. But why?

Perhaps it’s a form of protest against their sport. For the hunt club isn’t just under attack from the thief. Mysterious signs have started to appear outside their homes, decrying their way of life. stop foxhunting: a cruel sport reads one that appears outside Crawford’s house, not long after his painting goes missing. no hounds barking shows up on the telephone pole outside Sister’s driveway. Annoying, but relatively harmless.

Then Delores Buckingham, retired now but once a formidable foxhunter, is strangled to death after her own Munnings sidesaddle painting is stolen. Now Sister’s not just up against a thief and a few obnoxious signs—she’s on the hunt for a killer.
