Divas ‘Til Death
“Superman changes in a phone booth, I use my car,” is the mantra of frenzied television news reporter, Callie Kinsey. The daughter of a quirky, free love hippie, Callie doesn’t know much about her family’s past, but she is determined to make a future for herself in broadcast news while still finding time for her passion of riding hunter/jumper horses.
With her station recently sold and jobs on the line, Callie can’t believe the good fortune of stumbling across a dead body in a ditch. (“Good” strictly in a career saving capacity, naturally.) The victim turns out to be a wealthy equestrian — the first of three who will ultimately be found strangled along the peaceful rolling pastures of prestigious Chanticleer Farms.
Unfortunately for the struggling news reporter, the best story ever quickly couldn’t get any worse. First she’s snubbed by the snobs at the stables while trying to cover the breaking news. Then, her proximity to the victims, at a time she most needs media exposure, catapults her to the top of the list of suspects.
Determined to save her reputation and job, Callie manages to break into the inner sanctum of the equestrian elite, where she makes the surprising discovery that the wild lifestyles of the Divas may have lead to their deadly demise. Secrets are unveiled, suspects pop up like obstacles in the show ring, and Callie, a little too absorbed in chasing the story, not only closes in on the killer but inadvertently falls into the hands of the psychopath and in extreme danger of becoming the next victim.
