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. Trouble and mysterious forces whirl around Raleigh -- she never knows what's coming next.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. Several lost dogs need rescuing. An older lady from a prominent family seeks help with an unpredictable horse stabled on her estate. Raleigh decides to investigate the problems with the rambunctious horse. Why? Because 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. Will she save the horses? Will she ever understand why horses weep?

Autorenporträt
J.J. Minor writes YA mystery novels featuring amateur sleuth Raleigh Holmes. Minor and her family lived over a decade in London and boarded their own horses at a private stable, riding several times a week in Hyde Park along the Serpentine Lake and on Rotten Row, enjoying the many famous park attractions and trails. They belonged to a riding club that visited equestrian centers all around England. She also enjoyed riding and jumping lessons at a riding school in the ancient and scenic Burnham Beeches Wood, east of London in Buckinghamshire County, as well as many other upscale stables in the English countryside. After they returned to the States, the Minor family chose a country home and continued to enjoy owning several horses, trained in dressage and eventing--as well as the added attraction of several family dogs. Minor's love for horses, dogs, and other animals contributed to a commitment to all living creatures and their well being.
