The Space Between Us

With the small-town charm of the Pumpkin Falls Mysteries, and the animal world of Horse Girl, this contemporary mystery spotlights the strength of family.

Adopted as a toddler, 12-year-old Abby Kennedy grew up as her Uncle Heath's little shadow on the family farm. But lately, no matter how hard she tries, every effort seems to increase the growing distance between them.

When Abby's horse Marigold disappears, her deepest fear comes to life. Everyone she loves goes away. At a time when Abby needs her family more than ever, a new friendship ignites years of simmering anger and the space between her and Uncle Heath stretches even further.

Abby is determined to find Marigold, but where can she search for a horse that's vanished without a trace? Shedding light on a long-buried secret might help bridge the gap between Abby and Uncle Heath, but healing a family takes more than just words and horses.
