Killer Fashion Mysteries 15 - Ranch Dressing

"Vallere approaches the material—and Samantha’s narration—with a light touch…when the solution comes, it’s clever and satisfying. Readers in the mood for a low-stakes whodunit will be charmed." - Publishers Weekly Samantha Kidd has faced plenty of killers—but this one comes with spurs. When Samantha’s father-in-law invites her and Nick to spend a week at a dude ranch he’s considering buying, she prepares for fresh air, wide-open spaces, and a break from sleuthing. Trading high heels for cowboy boots seems like a fair price for a little peace and quiet. Then the ranch owner is found dead in one of the stables. With the deal on the line and the suspects close at hand, Samantha digs in to uncover the truth. Between tight-lipped cowhands, competitive barrel racers, and a culture clash that feels straight out of another century, she quickly realizes life on the ranch is anything but relaxing. As the secrets pile up and danger grows, Samantha must navigate a world she barely understands to stop a killer before the trail goes cold. Ranch Dressing is the fifteenth mystery in the Killer Fashion Mysteries. Perfect for readers who lovewestern-flavored settings, sharp humor, and a clever puzzle that proves murder is never just horsing around.
