Marla's honeymoon at an Arizona dude ranch turns deadly when murder threatens to unhorse her new happiness in this award-winning cozy mystery set in the perilous west. Hoping for a romantic honeymoon at an Arizona dude ranch, hairstylist Marla Vail and her detective husband Dalton arrive to find a series of mishaps plaguing the resort. A nearby ghost town is suffering similar problems. Is it mere coincidence that Dalton's Uncle Raymond owns both properties? When Raymond asks for their help in finding the culprit, Marla and Dalton eagerly accept, but the case quickly escalates into murder. With sleuthing more natural to Marla than horseback riding, she delves into the investigation. As she digs deeper, she discovers skeletons hidden in the family closet. Someone means to drive Raymond out of business, and the reason may be linked to his past misdeeds. But Raymond isn't the only one with secrets. The trail leads Marla to environmental activists, saguaro poachers and water rights advocates. She'd better saddle up, rein in the clues, and find the killer before she becomes the next spirit inhabiting the haunted hillside. "Peril by Ponytail ropes in the reader in Nancy J.
