Unlucky Death introduces Sierra Farr, the savvy, outdoor-loving, adventurous heroine in a new mystery series. When Sierra finds herself the heir to an unexpected fortune, danger comes attached. After receiving a dire warning from longtime friend, Misty Phelps, on her deathbed, her world turns into one of murder and mayhem. She inherits Misty's Thunderhead Equestrian Ranch, but soon realizes her inheritance comes with a hefty price tag-her life... Beginning with the brutal murder of a champion show horse, the game becomes deadly when Sierra finds herself caught in a wild kaleidoscope of greed and revenge, and her time and luck are running out. The players are playing for keeps and are determined to leave no survivors. Three troubling mysteries rise like a Phoenix from the ashes after Misty's funeral: the competition for a $50,000 equestrian prize, a multimillion-dollar land deal, and a lawsuit with a major pharmaceutical company. When Sierra learns Misty was murdered, that the mysteries all share a bizarre twist, and that they're related to her and the tragic events of her past, she must stay one step ahead of her pursuers and discover the unexpected truth... As each mystery escalates and rapidly converges, Sierra struggles to find the common thread that binds them all together. When she finally comprehends who the killer is, and the very fiber of her being is shaken, she comes to the chilling realization that trust is merely an illusion...
