A death at her brother's stable ropes Claire into a basket of trouble

A Basket of Trouble, book three in the Claire Hanover Mystery series. When gift basket designer Claire Hanover saddles up for the opening event at her brother Charley's new riding stable, the last thing she expects is for Kyle Mendoza, one of the stable hands, to be found dead. Everyone assumes a horse trampled him, until it's discovered that someone murdered Kyle before dragging him into a stall.

Charley's troubles worsen when a rival stable owner steals his clients and Kyle's family decides to sue him for negligence. Claire is determined to corral the killer and save her brother's business. However, solving the mystery could be more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack...and maybe even deadly.
