Horseshoes and Homicide
(2026)(The fourth book in the Estate Sale Mystery series)
A Story by Wanda Fellows
The horses at Bridle Creek Farm have opinions about Callie Vance. The bay near the paddock fence watches her like a middle manager who's been passed over for promotion. She watches him back. She's been doing this long enough to know when something on a property doesn't want to be found.
Callie is hired to sort through the sprawling equestrian estate of Lloyd Drayton—a master craftsman whose farm sits in the rolling pastureland outside Saddler's Gap. Lloyd's death was ruled an accident. His custom competition saddle tells a different story.
The hardware is wrong. Two screws, subtly replaced. On a saddle built to carry a competitive rider over serious fences, the difference between original hardware and replacement hardware is the difference between a fall and a fatality—if you know what you're looking at, and if you know what to do with what you find.
Callie knows both. Working through a tight community of stable hands, farm neighbors, and competitive riders with years of history and at least one serious grudge, she uses the inventory itself as her evidence trail—and Winston uses the barn floor to draw her a line between two points she hadn't connected yet.
