Shadow Horse  by Hart is a mystery of sorts focused around a girl named Jas. Her Grandpa had worked as caretaker at High Meadows for five years and Jas loved riding and showing the gorgeous horses raised there. Then her favorite, Whirlwind is found dead, Grandpa has a stroke, and Mr. Robineaux says Grandpa had accidentally poisoned the horse by putting poisonous branches from a yew he’d trimmed in her paddock. Jas attacks him, is prosecuted and sent to foster care while Grandpa recuperates in a nursing home. Lucky for her, she’s placed at Second Chance Farm where Diane Hahn rehabs animals and finds homes for them. Jas wants to find out what really happened to Whirlwind as well as find a new home for herself and Grandpa. Good read, especially for animal lovers.
