Rescuing Horses is Murder
When Meg gets a phone call from her dad, she learns that a horse rescue organization in a neighboring county has to move their horses, and Meg’s neighbor and friend Ragnar has agreed to take the horses in. But they need people to help settle the horses, so she goes over to help. As the day progresses, Meg begins to learn about the fight between the owner of the farm the horses came from and his brother, who has just inherited half of the farm. That night, Meg finds a dead body in one of the barns. Can she figure out who the killer is?

Series like this walk a fine line between giving us information on the hook of the series, in this case animals, and focusing on the mystery. This one errs on the side of animal talk, which did slow things down. Don’t get me wrong, there was a good mystery here, with some twists I enjoyed and a logical climax, but it could have been stronger. The suspects are interesting. We don’t have the full cast of regulars in town, but those who are in town are their usual charming selves. The humor didn’t seem as strong either, but there were some laughs and grins. While not the strongest in the series, it will entertain Meg’s many fans.
