Does the truth lie in the deep secrets of a prominent family? What are the common threads? As Lanie gets entangled in the investigation, she meets an SBI agent who warns her off, an elderly woman who knows secrets that someone will kill to keep, and a beautiful but dangerous horse. Soon Lanie and her beloved dogs are in danger and she has to take action. Mystery readers will love this well-plotted and character-rich book.
