Query: No mystery...

I picked this book off the library shelf because I like a good mystery, but this seems to be a book about foxhunting with a sparse mystery story added as an afterthought. It was disappointing in many respects: hollow characters, poor writing, unrealistic dialogue. I haven't read any other Rita Mae Brown, but I'm a little confused by her popularity. If this is representative of her work, she's not a writer.
