Probable Caws follows Five Golden Wings as the thirty-ninth in Donna Andrews' long-lived and ever popular cozy mystery series starring blacksmith/amateur sleuth Meg Langslow - alongside her lengthening entourage of friends, family and Caerphilly neighbors.

This episode centers on the community's involvement in rescue of an equine rescue organization (Hoof and Hearth) that lost access to their horse haven. Of course Ragnar Ragnarsen offers space on his large estate (complete with moated castle) and the good folks of Caerphilly line up to help.

The owner of the land previously used died sans will and his two sons are now at odds - George wants to sell the land, while Abel would continue the equine arrangement. George's thug is even suspected of planning harm to the horses.

Meg and family camp out overnight in Ragnar's barn, ready to do what's needed. The minion is murdered and Abel comes under suspicion, along with other prominent horse rescuers. Of course, we know Meg will get it sorted. She does, in an equine maternity shed, aided by a crew of crows, goats and horses. Tons of fun!
