It's possible that it's because it's a 30-year-old book, but for whatever reason, this wasn't as suspenseful as other books I've read lately. It started out great. A young unmarried woman is found dead after her horse fails to clear a jump that it managed sucessfully a few hours earlier, and after a time, wire cuts are found on the horse's legs. It just didn't take as much "figuring out," or, maybe I'm getting better?? LOL
