A Trash 'n' Treasures Mystery Antiques Round Up

"Spring! The season of hope, possibilities . . . and an opportunity for Brandy Borne and her mother Vivian to replenish their Trash 'n' Treasures shop. With Western antiques in demand, Vivian (true-crime author, amateur sleuth) ropes Brandy (reluctant Watson to her mother's Sherlock) into hitting the trail for Tranquility, Texas, where a city-wide yard sale awaits. After a journey filled with one calamity after another, Vivian makes a horseback call on a local banker for a pre-arranged sale, only to find him dead with his boots on. Even though she gets tossed temporarily in the hoosegow, this is not Vivian's first rodeo, and soon she and pardner Brandy are riding herd on a stampede of suspects ranging from unhappy heirs to a chicken rancher to assorted dealers in Western antiques. The tenderfoot duo must face deceit and danger, and risk cashing in their chips, if they are to round up a deadly outlaw or two and return to their cozy shop in Serenity, Iowa--not to mention Brandy's shih tzu sidekick Sushi--alive."--Provided by publisher.
