A spine-tingling adventure with as many twists and turns as a steeplechase course.
"The Jagged Circle is full of suspense and a perfect book for horse lovers." — Amber Marshall, equestrian and star of CBC's Heartland
It's spring break and Evangeline Gibb is bored, stuck at her Gran Mary's farm mucking stalls while her friends are away on vacation. She decides to spend the time training her horse, Kazzam, to ride cross-country to compete in the March Madness Steeplechase. But everything changes when Evie takes Kazzam for a gallop through the woods and makes a grisly discovery.
In a hoof-pounding race against time, Evie and her heroic horse team up to solve a mystery that involves, murder and deception, her troubled stepsister, a circle of runaway teen girls, and long-hidden truths about her family.

      Gr 7 Up-It's spring break in Ontario and 16-year-old Evie Gibbs is out for a stroll through the woods with her horse, Kazzam, when she stumbles across a teenage girl left for dead. Later that day, her half-sister Beatrice, 14, goes missing. Evie and her younger half-brother Jordie are convinced that Beatrice is involved with the same people who left the girl in the woods. With little help from the police, Jordie, Evie, and their grandmother begin their hunt for Beatrice and find out the neighboring horse stables may be hiding more than farm animals on their grounds. As Book Two in the "Jockey Girl" series, readers do not need to read the first, nor do they need to be horse lovers, to get swept up in this multi-layered mystery. The balance of mystery, horses, humor, and easy vocabulary makes this a perfect pick for readers who are looking for thrills but not ready to dive into traditional YA murder mysteries. Main characters are white and Canadian. VERDICT A good pick for collections looking for horse books for teenagers or Agatha Christie-like mysteries.-Anna Taylor, Chattanooga, TN
