Synopsis

The Reprisal is the sixth volume in the Ian Caxton Thriller series. When Ian spots an opportunity to attain revenge on his nemesis Jonathan Northgate, he has no idea he'll be antagonising the police and become entangled with a dangerous Mafia-like organisation. Out of his depth and frustrated, Ian eventually realises his actions may now have dire consequences for both family and friends… but is his desperate response too late? In Antigua, Oscar is invited by a client to view an unusual painting. However, after initially thinking the picture is worthless he is amazed to discover other pictures painted by the same abstract artist have each sold for over twenty million dollars! His big challenge is to convince the artist's foundation, in New York, that his client's picture is authentic and therefore potentially worth a similarly staggering fortune. Another dramatic page-turning tale of adventure, conspiracy and determination, where lives are at risk.

    An eye-wateringly expensive watch is found discarded on the land days prior to a dead body turning up. “Sister” Jane Arnold sets out to find the connection between the two, with a little help from her friend—both two legged and four—in this transportive mystery from New York Times bestselling author Rita Mae Brown. 
     
    Between organizing a joint session with her friends at Bull Run Hunt, leading her own Jefferson Hunt Club’s fox hunting season, and looking after her beloved hounds and horses, “Sister” Jane Arnold is as busy as can be. She and her friend Tootie Harris are helping to lure home hunt club member Cindy Chandler’s two escaped cows, Clytemnestra and Orestes, when they discover an expensive watch carelessly abandoned on an overgrown path. The last thing Sister needs is another mystery to solve, but when one falls into her lap, she can’t help but get involved. 
     
    Days later, a young man is murdered, one with seemingly no connection to the pricey jewelry or a life of crime. His mother is distraught, and Sister vows to find the murderer. But when hounds on the hunt discover a truck covered in blood—with no body in sight—she quickly realizes she’s in over her head with a cunning and clever adversary. Can she find the link and stop the murderer before they strike again? Only time will tell.
