Brandon Benedict’s hair-trigger temper gets the best of him when Juan, his horse trainer, tries to stop him from abusing his horse at a back-to-school chili supper for the faculty and staff of Huntington University. The next morning Benedict is found dead in the horse’s stall. The first impression of the deputies is that he was trampled by the horse, but a bloody shovel concealed in the hay tells a different story. When Juan’s fingerprints are found on the shovel, Sheriff Jensen arrests him for murder.Economics teacher Faye Winters doubts Juan’s guilt and joins forces with Deputy Pete Duncan to prove him innocent. The more they look into Benedict’s life, the more people they find who wanted him dead. Faye’s investigation takes her from one end of the state to another, from a raid on horse rustlers in Fort Stockton, to an encounter with a chupacabra-like beast near Corpus Christi, to a conversation with a woman who might be the ghost of the legendary Diamond Bessie in Jefferson.Along the way she samples Texas cuisine from armadillo to zucchini. Recipes for chili, barbeque, King Ranch casserole and other Texas favorites are included.
