Harry's fellow volunteers including her oldest friend Susan Tucker comprise a spirited group of hunting enthusiasts some former service members themselves. But things take a sinister turn when after a routine tree cleanup along the Club's hunting trails retired foreign services officer Jason Holzknect is found dead throat slit from ear to ear. Soon enough another murder in their midst jolts the preparations convincing Harry that the killer is familiar with the Club-and must be close by masked in plain sight. The intrigue extends to the grounds of Harry's beloved local church where the identity of an eighteenth-century skeleton wearing precious pearls remains a mystery. The anonymous woman's neck had been snapped and marks on the grave where her body was secreted indicate that someone recently tried to remove it leading Harry to question how well she really knows those around her. As always Harry's crime-solving cats Mrs. Murphy and Pewter and Tee Tucker the Corgi share her determination to sniff out the foes among friends even those long buried. Harry will need her four-legged companions' help more than ever: a ghostly beagle only they can see may hold the key to the culprit.
