EDITORIAL REVIEW:
Someone's making death threats in Dixie - against a thoroughbred horse destined to be the next Secretariat. At the owner's request, Boston P.I. Spenser hoofs it down South - where the lies are buzzing...and the dying is easy.Brisk...crackling...Hugger Mugger finishes strong, just like a thoroughbred should. (*Entertainment Weekly*)A winner...the famous dialogue is polished to a high shine...terrific. (*Kirkus Reviews*)Snappy. (*Chicago Tribune*)
