**The following is from the back of the book; I DID NOT write it**
Part One: THE ARSONIST
Eva hates the thought of having to waste three weeks of her summer vacation on her cousin. Anna - what a wimp! She's even scared of the horses! But then Eva's mood improves when she hears that her horse-mad cousin Rachel is coming, too. Suddenly, things are starting to look up!

But nothing turns out the way Eva expects. There's an arsonist at large, and he's closing in on the family stud farm. Eva and the girls have never been so scared - what if their place is the next target? Will they be able to protect the horses? And who is that scary person with the cold, eerie voice making threatening phone calls?

Part Two: WITHOUT SCRUPLES
It's been a whole year since that scary summer of the arsonist, and Eva and Rachel are back together. This year, nothing's going to ruin their three whole weeks of vacation together! It'll be a whole lot of peace and quiet, and horses, horses, horses!

But peace and quiet are the last things they're going to get. Burglaries and assaults are more like it, and they're running rampant throughout town. Before Eva and Rachel know it, they're dragged straight into the middle of something that's getting scarier by the minute...

**My Review**
I thought that this was a good mystery. It was easy to predict and the characters weren't very original but it was still enjoyable. It made a lot of sense to have both stories bound together. For other horse mysterys check out Ann Sheldon's "Linda Craig" series or Claire Birch's "Galloping Detective series.
