Hoofbeats On The Trail Ally O Connor Adventures Book 3

When a mysterious boy rides out of the woods and into Ally's life, her fun-spirited friend Nick becomes jealous-and suspicious. Who is this bold Jeff Kruck? Why does he live with his aunt but spend so much time in the woods? Why does he sneak around at night? Is Jeff behind a rash of break-ins and vandalism in the neighborhood? In the quest for answers, Ally learns you can't always paint someone "bad" or "guilty" with a single stroke. As she tries to convince Nick, and herself, that Jeff may not be the neighborhood vandal, she learns deeper issues are at hand. Can she help the truly troubled Jeff and show Nick there's room for many friends in a girl's life? Ally surprises even herself in this third book of the Ally O'Connor Adventures. About the series: Whether saving wild mustangs at a nature preserve or encouraging teammates to try new moves in gymnastics, Ally O'Connor is a girl with a sense of mission. As she searches to find her own place and purpose in the world, she helps others do the same. Her faith and love of life are contagious, as Nick, his little sister, Molly, and others join in Ally's adventures.

Ally and friends discover that the new girl in town is from an abusive family. They try to help her and attempt to save her horse from a fire.

Fifty years after the publication of Martin Esslin's The Theatre of the Absurd , which suggests that 'absurd' plays purport the meaninglessness of life, this book uses the works of five major playwrights of the 1950s to provide a timely reassessment of one of the most important theatre 'movements' of the 20th century.

Set in the colorful world of the 1930s and peopled with writers H.P. Lovecraft, L. Ron Hubbard, Lester Dent, and Walter Gibson, this swashbuckling literary thriller propels the characters into a genuine pulp adventure in which they try to thwart a madman intent on creating a new global empire.
