In pursuit of a horse thief, Nancy rides down a twisted trail of trouble!

Nancy's friend Laura Passano has invited her down to Maryland to enjoy a horseback riding holiday. The weather is wonderful, the pastures peaceful, the trip a real treat. There's only one catch: Someone's out to sabotage the Passano family stables. First, the feed is poisoned... then Laura's favorite horse, Morning Glory, is stolen!

Did Alexa Shaw, Laura's spoiled rival, find the perfect way to hurt her? Or has the upcoming fox hunt so enraged animal activists that they've turned to sabotage? Spurred to action, Nancy's in the hunt for a lawbreaker... and she's headed straight into a hornet's nest of greed, jealousy, deception, and dangerous secrets!

More About the Author

Carolyn Keene and Franklin W. Dixon are the pseudonyms under which many ghostwriters penned the Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys series, respectively. Both series were created by Edward Stratemeyer, founder of the Stratemeyer Syndicate book packaging firm, in the late 1920s and early 1930s.

Stratemeyer's daughter, Harriet, and syndicate writer Mildred Wirt Benson were the two people primarily responsible for bringing the iconic character of Nancy Drew to life in the minds and hearts of millions of readers around the world.

5.0 out of 5 stars Again Nancy is GOOD!, April 19, 2004

A Kid's Review

This review is from: The Fox Hunt Mystery (Nancy Drew) (Turtleback)

This book is 5 stars on the top! I don't even like horses and I enjoyed the book. It kind of wanted me to read about horses. This book has emotion, a little bit of actin[but at the end it has tons of action], and of course what every mystery HAS and NEEDS suspense. It might be a little boring at first but at the end of EACH chapter... oh I can't tell you! Buy or get this book to find out how Nancy solves this case! And ask your friends to try get a Nancy Drew book and enjoy the mystery. Enjoy this one too!
