It's a tale of lifelong friendship, coming of age, and falling in-then out-of love.\u003cbr\u003eThere is one woman, Serena Swallow, and three men, Pete, Don and Ed. She's rootless. They're blood brothers, best buds since boyhood. Pete and Don are fraternal twins, rejected by their parents and brought up in separate households.\u003cbr\u003eAt Coyote Canyon, a fashionable ski resort in the High Sierra, theirs is not a love triangle. It's a club of four. Members belong till death do they part.\u003cbr\u003ePassion, lust, betrayal and revenge rage against brotherly love and lifelong loyalty. There are scores to settle and mysteries to unravel. Was the Christmastide avalanche that swept Serena away an accident-or murder? What about Pete and Don falling off a thousand-foot cliff in the same spot more than forty years later?\u003cbr\u003eThe last man standing is Edward Dobbs, also known as Ed the Talking Horse. He's an unlikely detective-gawky, mild-mannered, exceptionally honest. But Ed is going to find the truth of what happened in Coyote Canyon then and now, even if it kills him.\u003cbr\u003e\"\u003ci\u003eFour of Clubs\u003c\/i\u003e takes place in the rocky, steep Sierra of California.
