Full Description:
From the back cover: "At the peak of the Arabian horse industry in the 1980's, St. Louis businessman Johan Murphy, takes time out of his stressful life to meet with his unscrupulous new lawyer. Caught between a rock and a hard place, Murphy's finances prohibit him from making the upcoming installment payment on his Triple Crown winner, LOVE LETTER, an Arabian mare he recently acquired at a prestigiuos Scottsdale auction...setting the stage for the demise of an entire industry. ...Cali Canberra takes us on a wild ride of intrique, murder, manipulation, corruption and suspense, with an insider's eye toward the inner workings of an industry previously reserved for the rich and famous." ...Seller's note: the Triple Crown mentioned above refers to halter competition Championships at the U.S. National Arabian Show, the Scottsdale Annual All-Arabian Horse Show and the Canadian National Arabian Horse Show. ...From the advertisement page: "The Arabian horse business during the 1980's was marked by inflated prices, sweetheart deals, and inflated egos. This novel does a great job of fictionalizing what really happened, and making the account fun and very readable. With surprising plot twists and turns, the book kept me up late at night reading to see what would happen next. Author Canberra has a great feel for the people she writes about, as well as what went wrong with the Arabian Horse business." - Hallie McElvoy, THE HORSEMAN'S YANKEE PEDLAR. |
