Or with Tilly, a loopy neighbor who thinks it's in her stars to swap farms with Julia? Or even Julia's persistent suitor, Colonel Dodge, who's all too eager to saddle up and charge to her rescue?Though the wedding goes off without a hitch, Sarah and Alex are reined in from their honeymoon when the stable turns up a gruesome corpse...and it doesn't take more than horse sense to recognize foul play.Product image is for illustration purposes only and may not be an exact representation of the product offered for sale.
