This would've been a great read if I found the main character likable at all. But I thought he was an uptight, fusty pain in the rear who had a tendency for being pompous. That alone made this a less than enjoyable read for me. Too bad as I loved the idea of a large-animal vet being the focus of a mystery series very much.

It was the first in the series. I have thesecond, but have not read it yet. It was interesting, but I like the hemlock falls series better. I think, if you really loved horses and horse shows, this would have more appeal.

I love vet mysteries and went to college in upstate NY, so this was a fun read for me.

Fun cozy mystery about an older large animal veterinarian. Quite knowledgable about large animals and horses, except for the when mare foals -- oops! Definitely recommmend!

Very similar to Hemlock Falls. First in a new series

I really enjoyed this first book in the new series by Claudia Bishop. Looking forward to more.
