"Sister" Jane Arnold returns in a colorful mystery featuring four-legged sleuths-and the breathtaking thrill of the chase-from the New York Times bestselling author of Crazy Like a Fox. As winter deepens over the Blue Ridge Mountains, even the threat of snowstorms cannot derail this year's Christmas run, not as long as "Sister" Jane Arnold has a say in it. With spirits high and traditions strong, a glorious parade of hunters in full holiday regalia gathers on the grounds of Tattenhall Station. But a blinding blizzard brings an early end to the sport. More disturbing: A horse soon returns without its rider. Gregory Luckham, a controversial presence as the president of a powerful energy company pushing for a pipeline through central Virginia, is the missing hunter. A search is organized for what is presumed will be a dead, frozen body. What is discovered, however, chills everyone to the bone-and points toward murder. Sister Jane will have to untangle a mystery packed as hard as snow-full of history, secrets, old wounds, and avarice. Praise for Homeward Hound "Cunning foxes, sensible hounds and sweet-tempered horses are among the sparkling conversationalists in this charming series."-The New York Times Book Review "Readers will be charmed by Brown's endearing characters, animal and human, all of whom are given to philosophizing on the state of the world."-Publishers Weekly "With deep and broad knowledge of the sport, the area and the people and animals who inhabit it, [Brown] infuses Homeward Hound-and the entire series-with unmatched authenticity, Southern charm, beloved characters and engaging storylines."-The Free Lance-Star
