Imagine a beautiful young woman. Riding skillfully on a beautiful horse. In the most beautiful setting imaginable. Imagine that beautiful woman dead in her car. Why did she die? And who killed her? Polo, show jumping, riding to hounds. Grady Gallagher can do none of these things. But he’d better learn if he wants to stay alive. Easygoing humor columnist for The Washington Post, Grady Gallagher, finds himself in partnership with a mysterious British Viscount and a beautiful equestrian, as they unravel the secrets behind the death of his lordship’s niece. Staying on the estate of one of the richest women in the country, he is learning to ride, learning to love, and learning to duck, as sinister forces will stop at nothing to block their investigation. The Kill of the Hunt is the initial book in The Virginia Hunt Country Mysteries.
