The Mule Ears: A Big Bend Country Mystery 4 - Paperback

"It's lucky you two gals ain't packin' heat."

Two hot-blooded West Texas ranchers-Tilda Quigg and Beatrice Shoot-make a spectacle of themselves at a local bookstore, turning a serious gathering there into a brawl. Days later, one of the women is comatose at the foot of a staircase in her mansion, the other hovering over her adversary's body. An accident, homicide, or something else? The Mule Ears tells the tale and much more, as Hollywood invades Big Bend Country to make a movie about-what else?-murder.

Favorite characters from the series return, including Sheriff Clayton Shoot, his sister Beatrice, Professor Claire Harp, Ella Nixon, and more. But expect movie stars, cowboys, and a few mobsters too in this humorous free-for-all.

"An engaging mystery in a vivid setting with offbeat characters and a sense of fun."
