• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

As reports of mystifying horse deaths dot the area newspapers, teenager Raleigh Holmes is curious and concerned, but her attention remains fixed on another mystery the identity of a stalker tormenting her. He teases her with shocking messages. Threatens her with blood-stained chains. Disguises himself in plain sight. Could the guilty party be an angry new student in history class? She can't help being curious. He is cute and deliciously intriguing. He lives in a mortuary, so he's also decidedly dangerous. Then there's another stalker candidate who lives right next door. He's an obnoxious school mate, suddenly tingling with unwanted interest in the opposite sex, and he's interested in Raleigh. The third suspect is an irate youth who lives with a pack of dogs in an abandoned school bus. Raleigh searches for clues about each suspect as she works to expose the troubling creep making her life miserable.

Raleigh is passionate about righting wrongs. She wants to fight injustice. She can't say no to those in need. However, she isn't always perfect. Doesn't always make the right decisions. Complications swirl around Raleigh. A young boy asks for help finding his mom. A lost dog needs rescuing. An older lady from a prominent family needs help with an unpredictable horse stabled on her estate. Raleigh decides to investigate the problems with the rambunctious horse. Why? Because he's owned by her grandson, a famous teen rock star. Also, the intriguingly cute, bad guy from school works at the stable. One night Raleigh needs to get to the stable--fast. But she doesn't have transportation. She steals her mother's car. Her decision leads to events that draw Raleigh into the center of the ruthless gang-for-hire killing the area horses, and reveals the identity of one larger-than-life, demented stalker.
