Publisher Comments:

Horses + mystery + rescuing abused animals = a triple crown of perpetually popular preteen genres!

Thirteen-year-old Jasmine is found guilty of assaulting Hugh Robicheaux, the owner of the horse farm where she works. But she's still determined to prove that Robicheaux killed Whirlwind, the mare she loved. Jas is sure that Shadow Horse, a scrawny brown gelding she rescues at a horse auction, is the key to the mystery—but just how is Shadow Horse connected to Whirlwind?

Deftly written by a teacher and equestrian who has authored more than sixty books, this heartwarming and inspiring Edgar Award nominee will have special appeal for mystery fans as well as young horse lovers.

Synopsis:

Thirteen-year-old Jasmine Schuler must prove that the man she attacked killedher horse.

Synopsis:

Written by a teacher and equestrian who has authored over 40 books.

Shadow Horse is a good book. It had an ending I never saw coming! It's a great book, not for the young horse lover, but more for the teen horse lover and older. It's plot line is good, and the book is well written. Alison Hart really knows how to write a good and intresting horse book, with a witty, smart, and strong main heroine.
