The Yonahlossee Riding Camp for Girls Free Preview
Anton DiSclafani - 2013
It is 1930, the midst of the Great Depression. After her mysterious role in a family tragedy, passionate, strong-willed Thea Atwell, age fifteen, has been cast out of her Florida home, exiled to an equestrienne boarding school for Southern debutantes. High in the Blue Ridge Mountains, with its complex social strata ordered by money, beauty, and girls’ friendships, the Yonahlossee Riding Camp for Girls is a far remove from the free-roaming, dreamlike childhood Thea shared with her twin brother on their family’s citrus farm—a world now partially shattered. As Thea grapples with her responsibility for the events of the past year that led her here, she finds herself enmeshed in a new order, one that will change her sense of what is possible for herself, her family, her country. Weaving provocatively between home and school, the narrative powerfully unfurls the true story behind Thea’s expulsion from her family, but it isn’t long before the mystery of her past is rivaled by the question of how it will shape her future. Part scandalous love story, part heartbreaking family drama, The Yonahlossee Riding Camp for Girls is an immersive, transporting page-turner—a vivid, propulsive novel about sex, love, family, money, class, home, and horses, all set against the ominous threat of the Depression—and the major debut of an important new writer.

Cousins Jack and Liam, and their longtime friend, Brodie aren’t just the private investigators of the firm, they’re also shifters belonging to the very same dwindling den of wolves. PART ONE Charlotte Gold has followed in her father’s legendary, country-singing footsteps, though her success hasn’t spanned beyond Cottage Grove. She’s just fine with that and singing with her band at Home on the Range feels like a little slice of heaven and a whole lot of fun whenever she gets on stage. But when her drummer keels over, dead, one night while playing, Charlotte’s quiet corner of paradise turns dark. No one suspects foul play except for Charlotte and she will stop at nothing to expose the killer who took her friend’s life, even if the residents of Cottage Grove think she’s crazy. One man doesn’t think she’s lost her mind, however, and Jack has all the skills and resources to crack this overlooked case wide open.

It’s been forever, but how could she say no to her favorite Skype friend who has always been there for her, through thick and thin? For Eve, well, one reason comes to mind… or person. Brodie Shea. When Eve arrives at Cottage Grove, however, she discovers her friend mysteriously vanished. How could that be? Eve fears the worst, knowing her friend wouldn’t miss her high school reunion for the world. And it will be Brodie and his private investigation firm who will help Eve find out why her old friend has suddenly disappeared.

Come to think about it, not only does Wendy not recognize Liam, but she doesn’t recognize Cottage Grove, the town where she apparently grew up in, or remember anything about her life for that matter. Amnesia. Wendy’s memory will come back, but no one knows when or how or why, and until she remembers who knocked her out and tossed her into Silver Lake for dead, she will have no choice but to rely on the one man she trusts didn’t do it—Liam Doren. But Liam has secrets of his own. He’s a wolf shifter, after all, and the closer these two get, the harder it becomes for him to hide it from her.
