Racing Toward Murder
By Donna Ison
The wealthiest in the world are attending the auction of the century. However, before the bidding can even begin, General Fleet Feet, the main auction item, goes missing.
Join Chester Bidden, auctioneer to the stars, the battling exes Alexandria and Kincaid Worthington, Tammy Trotter the Horse Physic, Troy the Boy Toy, and Bruno the Bookie as they search for the missing thoroughbred. But will they find murder instead?
Homicide On The Homestretch
By Donna Ison
What do Hollywood and Kentucky have in common? They both love a Cinderella story. In this one, Deena Defaria, a Jersey hairdresser turned lotto billionaire, and her horse, Go-Go Guido, start taking the racing world by storm, and the studios come a-knockin'.
Sadly, not everyone wants this story to have a happy ending. Throw in a thoroughbred trainer with a scandalous past, a jockey who habitually imbibes too much bourbon, a former child star desperate to make a comeback, and a bitter director who'd rather be filming fire ants, and we have "lights, camera, ... murder!"
Horsin’ Around With Murder
By Paula Hilton
Everyone is in town for the equestrian event of the year, The Red River Gorge Games. They also have all come to the book signing for Houston Dallas’ new book, “A Horse is a Horse, Of Course of Course.”
Houston arrives with his new girlfriend, Deneeze Arshot, who happens to be a French reining judge. Steed Roper, the reigning champion until he mysteriously disappeared two years ago, is also in attendance. Cheyenne Sassy is the current champion. The head judge this year is Taryn Wear. But Wear has become mad with power.
What will happen when they all get together? Nostrils will flare. Hooves may stomp. One thing is for sure. Someone will end up dead in this hysterical horse-themed comedy-meets-murder by Paula Hilton.
A Thoroughly Deadly Derby
By Patti Heying
Wiley Hogsworth always dreamed of racing one of his horses in the Derby. And it is finally going to happen! To celebrate, Wiley invites Thoroughly Thoroughbred Racing Club members to his beautiful farm, Hog Heaven, to thank them for buying shares of his horse and first Derby entry, Runamuk.
Everyone is in a festive mood, even Wiley’s farm manager, Bruna Hailey, and she NEVER smiles. All is well until Roscoe Price gallops in to throw horse muck on Wiley’s character. And is that Roscoe’s wife Ophelia making eyes at Wiley? Throw in a mystery reporter, and the evening turns thoroughly deadly.
Derby hats are encouraged but unnecessary to join the fun at this Thoroughly Deadly Derby.
