Groomed for Death

So Texas horsewoman Robin Vaughan isn't much surprised to find herself flat on the sidewalk the first time she leaves her hotel. More surprising is the young woman who picks her up. In her black fishnet stockings, Flora looks more like a hooker than someone who gets up at five A.M. to feed the horses at an uptown riding stable. She may in fact be a hooker, for when Jeet, Robin's nervous husband, calls Claremont Riding Academy to confirm her identity, nobody there has heard of her.

But is the staff at Claremont as sinister as Flora claims? Or is trustful Robin being set up for a deadly fall? There's only one way to make sure, Robin takes a ride on the wild side of the West Side that culminates in glory...but not before murder is done.
