The Rocking Horse

By Gloria Zachgo and Stephan Pastis

Book Overview

A missing child. A woman seeking refuge. A childhood toy that seems to know the way home.

Twenty-two years ago, two-year-old Jenny Preston vanished on the night three members of her family were murdered. In Shady Creek, Kansas, her grandparents still live with the loss, while Sheriff Will Barclay carries secrets of his own.

Now Julie Hendricks arrives in the small town, fleeing an abusive husband and drawn by a rocking horse she has kept since childhood. A job, new friendships and unexpected kindness give her a chance to build a life of her own. But the welcome she finds brings unsettling questions about where that life began.

As Julie searches for the truth, the danger she left behind threatens the safety she has found.

The Rocking Horse weaves family suspense with a touch of the paranormal in a story of identity, belonging and the difficult journey toward healing.
