About this listen
“The thriller of the summer.”—Today.com
Set in the glamorous, competitive world of showjumping, a novel about the girls who ride, their cutthroat mothers, and a suspicious death at a horse show…from the author of Good Rich People
When the nouveau riche Parker family moves to an exclusive community in the heart of Southern California, they believe it’s their chance at a fresh start. Heather Parker is determined to give her daughters the life she never had—starting with horses.
She signs them up for riding lessons at Rancho Santa Fe Equestrian, where horses are a lifestyle. Heather becomes a “Barn Mom,” part of a group of wealthy women who hang at the stables, drink wine, and prepare their daughters for competition.
It’s not long before the Parker family is fully enmeshed in the horse world—from mean girl cliques to barn romances and dark secrets. With the end of summer horse show fast approaching, the pressure is on, and these mothers will stop at nothing to give their daughters everything they deserve.
Before the summer is over, lies will turn lethal, accidents will happen, and someone will end up dead.

Fifteen-year-old equestrian prodigy Roan Montgomery has only ever known two worlds: inside the riding arena and outside of it. Both, for as long as she can remember, have been ruled by her father, who demands strict obedience in all areas of her life. The warped power dynamic of coach and rider extends far beyond the stables, and Roan's relationship with her father has long been inappropriate. She has been able to compartmentalize that dark aspect of her life, ruthlessly focusing on her ambitions as a rider heading for the Olympics, just as her father had done.

UrbanMyth: It was lauded as an alternative to the performative, show-your-best-self platforms—an anonymous discussion board grouped by zip code. The residents of Manhattan’s exclusive Upper East Side disclosed it all, things they would never share with their friends or their spouses: secret bank accounts, steamy affairs, tidbits of juicy gossip. So when a “hacktivist” group breaks into the forum and exposes the real identity of each poster, the repercussions echo down Park Avenue with a force that none could have anticipated.

Not even the reappearance of a childhood so-not-a-friend throwing her perfectly balanced life into disarray.

The fact that her old crush from Pony Club is on the team is just a bonus.

Critic reviews
“Calling all former horse girls: This is the thriller you've been waiting for.”—Good Housekeeping
"In this whodunnit set in the elite show-jumping scene, new money clashes with old, while mean girls and competetive moms abound. Brazier gets everything right about how the horse world can go wrong."—People
"The complex motives, class divisions and nice-nasty backbiting among the “horse girls” and “barn moms” brings to mind the competitive female environments in Megan Abbott’s novels, but Brazier’s experience as a horsewoman and deep knowledge of that world could make her the next Dick Francis."—LA Times

Story
It’s autumn in the town of Harrow, but something besides the season is changing there. Because in that town there is an orchard, and in that orchard, seven most unusual trees. And from those trees grows a new sort of apple: strange, beautiful, with skin so red it’s nearly black. Take a bite of one of these apples, and you will desire only to devour another. And another. You will become stronger. More vital. More yourself, you will believe. But then your appetite for the apples and their peculiar gifts will keep growing—and become darker.

Don’t recommend
I’m not a fan of this story. I do like horses and I rode for a few years out of a barn. I was already “old”to start riding but I loved being in the barn, especially in the evening at feeding time. Anyway I thought the “story” poorly written - all the bad/evil stuff happened in the first three-quarters of the book, then it all started turning around. I ask you,when in life does that happen -ALL one way then ALL the other.

Such an entertaining book!
I had saved a screen shot of the cover & after seeing it recommended in a horse related fb group I immediately downloaded. Very fun read! A few details weren’t realistic but overall super enjoyable & kept me guessing.

Horse facts are questionable
I read this book because I’m a horse person. And, I have great admiration for the process of writing and publishing a book. Kudos to the author for this accomplishment. But, there is absolutely no way that some of the situations in this story could ever happen. For example, no horse show would have bon fires by a horse barn. No rider could go from walking on a lunge line to meter 30 in a day. But, the story was developed in a clever fashion and there was a bit of redemption in some of the characters. I did not appreciate the sex between children that have just come of age. This was tasteless. The character of the head trainer was, sadly, pretty on point.
