In book 7 of the delightful Horses & Friends Series for young readers, Kate and her friends are determined to find Kate’s stolen filly, but they soon realize not all is as it seems.

Fourteen-year-old Kate Ferris has settled into her new life in Odell, Oregon. The riding barn and her friendships are expanding, and her little brother, Pete, who is autistic, has started to blossom. The upcoming Hood River County fair promises to be the perfect place for Kate to show her new filly, Sapphire. But then the unthinkable happens: Sapphire disappears.

Kate and her friends scour the countryside, put up flyers, and even get the police involved, but Sapphire is nowhere to be found. Then they knock on the door of an old house and meet a suspicious man who demands they leave the property. Could he be involved in Sapphire’s disappearance? When Kate, Tori, and Jake look for clues, they find themselves trapped—and more desperate than ever to find Sapphire before she’s sold. Will the mysterious man decide to help them or only put them in more danger?

The latest addition to the Horses & Friends Series, Kate’s Stolen Treasure is a wholesome, well-crafted tale that includes author insights, a story-based recipe, and thoughtful questions to inspire deep faith and rich relationships.
