One Horse Open Slay (Bought-the-Farm Mystery)

Murder doesn't take a holiday... and neither does this amateur sleuth. Ivy's border collie loathes his winter parka, but he loves a good crime scene. When Keats sniffs out a body behind the museum, the town's cozy preparations for the Clover Grove Christmas tree lighting grind to a halt. The victim is the town’s prickliest docent, and a priceless antique sleigh is missing. Worse, a stray Shetland pony is the only witness. Now, feline sidekick Percy is finding clues in the taxidermy exhibit, and Keats is herding suspects through the snow. But the police have their eyes on the wrong person: Ivy's sister, Iris. To save Iris from spending Christmas in a cell, Ivy must decode the pony’s secrets and outsmart a killer who’s threatening to turn her winter wonderland into a graveyard. Can Ivy and her menagerie leash the culprit before the town’s festivities go up in flames? Join the investigation in One Horse Open Slay, a humorous cozy mystery featuring animal sidekicks and an amateur sleuth.
