The It Girls
They're rich, fabulous...and dangerously underestimated.
It Girl: Alexa Cheltingham
Mission: Pose as a grubby groom to catch a horse killer andprotect the show-jumping daughter of the mayor of New York.
A Cheltingham shoveling horse manure — what would Mother think? Thatwas my first reaction when the Gotham Rose spy ring handed me thisriches-to-rags assignment. But the country's top show horses were dyingsuspiciously and the Roses trusted me to catch the killer. My old leg injury wouldn't stand in my way, not by a longshot. I'd muck stalls and uncoverthe dirty secrets of the equine world's bigwigs, then clean up in time tohost the Horses of Hope charity ball. Speaking of the ball, I'd love to havecharmer Ross Hardel for my date...too bad he's my prime suspect.
