Where the Orchard Ends
Some silences are louder than words. Some friendships are deeper than wounds. Twelve-year-old Wren Harper hasn't spoken in seventy-three days, not since the morning she found her mother unresponsive. Now she's been sent to live with a grandmother she barely knows, on a rain-soaked orchard she doesn't want to call home. Then Wren discovers a starving, injured Appaloosa mare trapped in a ravine. She names the horse Talowa, a silent creature as wary and wounded as she is.
As Wren secretly nurses Talowa back to health, an unspoken bond forms. But when a stranger appears asking questions about a missing horse, Wren must decide just how far she'll go to protect the only soul who truly understands her.
