Nothing Like A Good Mystery To Pass The Time!

** Typos fixed in email address, and links corrected!! Sorry everyone- I need to NOT try and multi-task!!

Imagine my happiness, when in my inbox came an invitation from none other than our very own fellow equi-blogger, Laura Crum, to preview her next book and post a review on the blog.

I, to say the least, was tickled pink.

No, seriously! PINK! One of my favorite authors asked me to review one of her books! How cool is that?

I am looking forward to March, when the book will be available for review.

The teaser Laura sent me about the new book, titled "Going, Gone" nabbed my attention, and has me chomping at the bit to get my copy. Take a look to see what I mean:

"Horse vet Gail McCarthy goes camping in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mts, only to discover that her old boyfriend, Lonny Peterson, has just been arrested for the murder of a local livestock auctioneer. While Gail and her family camp and ride through the hills, Gail also tries to clear Lonny’s name, with the help of another old friend, sheriff’s deputy Bret Boncantini. A rescue horse, nefarious kill buyers, suspicious ranchers, and a heroic horse blogger further complicate the plot. Another murder and a trail that leads to Gail’s home on the California coast put her in danger as she begins to close in on the ruthless killer. In the end it is Gail’s riding skill that saves her in a thrilling horseback chase scene. Going, Gone features all the elements that Laura Crum is known for: fine writing about beautiful landscapes and authentic western horse lore, as well as an exciting mystery. Don’t miss this eleventh installment in the long running series."







Now, if you also might be interested in reviewing a copy, here's the deal:
- You need to have an "active" (regularly updated) horse blog
- Agree to give a review of the book on your blog after you read it
- The publisher would like your blog address, and a snail mail address
- Send an email to Susan Daniel, at susan@danielpublishing.com to sign up! Include the above information, and we'll all look forward to your review, too!

You can always visit Laura's WebSite for more information on the other ten books in the Gail McCarthy series as well. On these cold winter days, where the poor footing, freezing rains, fetlock deep mud, slick ice and belly deep snow keep us from riding or being outside for long, the best way to pass some time is to curl up with a good book. Personally, I think you can't go wrong with Gail McCarthy!
