It’s the first day at Wendelby horse riding camp when Kristina sees a pale little face in the attic window of an abandoned house. Kristina feels awkward and clumsy most of the time, and her friends at school don’t exactly make her feel better about herself. Turning up at the camp not knowing anyone, she feels alone and a little scared. But it’s not long until she meets Anna, a girl who seems to have no fear, and Finesse, the chestnut horse
that opens Kristina’s heart.
Set in Sweden, in the magical long days and white nights of summer, this is a story about a
haunted house, a stolen horse and a man that disappeared more than sixty years ago. It’s
also a story about friendship, belonging and the strong bond between a girl and a horse.
