Аннотация

The annual steeplechase races at
Montpelier, once the home of
James and Dolley Madison, are
the high point in the social
calendar of the horse-mad
Virginians of cozy Crozet. The race meet offers a cracking good
time with old friends and a
chance to get even—on the
racecourse—with old enemies.
Postmistress Mary Minor "Harry"
Haristeen will be in the thick of the action on this day of high
spirits and fierce competition.
But the glorious thoroughbreds
and the pinks and greens and
purples worn by the riders do
not blind Harry to the dangerous undercurrents that
start to surface. There's sure to
be some emotional fireworks at
Montpelier. Still, no one expects
the day to end in tragedy.
Found dead in the main barn is one of the day's riders, a knife
plunged through the jockey's
heart. The only clue is a playing
card, the Queen of Clubs,
impaled over the fatal wound.
Within the wealthy, tight-knit world of horse owners, trainers,
and jockeys, the victim had both
admirers and enemies.
Was the murderer's motive
greed, drugs--a pervasive evil in
the race world—or sexual rivalry? Luckily for Crozet's
humans, the tiger cat Mrs.
Murphy is right at home in the
stable yard...and on the trail of
the shocking truth. But will
Harry catch on in time to stop a killer grown bloodthirsty with
success?
In Murder, She Meowed Sneaky Pie Brown and her co-author,
Rita Mae Brown, have penned
another clever and sassy
mystery that probes the depths
of human depravity and the
heights of feline genius.
