A royal castle. A murder. The only witness? A horse.
Izzy Paterson prefers horses to humans—and spreadsheets to small talk. By day, she trains horses at a Highland estate. By night, she moonlights as an I.T. consultant with a cybercrime past she'd rather keep quiet.

But when a body turns up at Balmoral, the Queen's summer castle, Izzy and her new friend Craig end up in the wrong place at the wrong time—and suddenly find themselves suspects in a royal murder.

Armed with computer hacking skills, a gift for 'horse whispering', and a gossipy sidekick who knows every secret in the village, Izzy must solve the mystery before the killer strikes again—and before an innocent animal pays the ultimate price...

Perfect for fans of T.E. Kinsey, H.Y. Hanna, and Molly Fitz, this witty cozy mystery is the first in the Highland Horse Whisperer series. Saddle up for a fresh take on village crime—set against the stunning backdrop of the Scottish Highlands.
