Book First edition, October 1998, so stated with complete number line beginning with 1. Fine in fine dust jacket, not price clipped, in protective mylar cover. Vermont setting. Her 2nd book. "One fall, Zelda, the least charming cow to ever appear in print, escapes the pasture on Ruth Willmarth's Vermont farm and unearths a human finger bone with a ring on it. With her neighbor Fay Hubbard and Colm Hanna, an undertaker and police detective, Ruth tries to find the identity of the skeleton fragment while she cares for her family and struggling farm. Wright's second mystery, following Mad Season (1996), combines a finely wrought mystery with some superb local color. The autumnal New England landscape and the feel of changing seasons are captured perfectly, as are the rigors of attempting to farm thin Vermont soil. The book's multiple mysteries are demanding and carefully presented, and the realistic, sympathetic characters prove engaging, regardless of age, occupation, or moral outlook. Wright melds setting and character with the skill of Stephen Dobyns in his Saratoga mysteries."--Booklist.
