Description

‘Miss Jordan, Ravensbay’s Director of Equestrianism, told me she would be going on a fact-finding mission about Blue Angel’s origins over the Easter holidays. What if she’s found something?’

For Paige Buchanan, summer term is about one thing and one thing only… winning the lower school showjumping class at the Ravensbay School end-of-year gymkhana. If she can do that, she’ll surely be guaranteed her place back in alpha riding group next term, won’t she?

At first it seems that Paige has all the time in the world to prepare for the big day, but then the weeks start to fly by and everything from Blue Angel’s fitness to the weather seems determined to thwart her plans. Then rumours start to circulate that Blue Angel might not belong to Ravensbay at all, and that Paige’s precious pony could be taken away.

Before she knows it, Paige finds herself racing against the clock, not, as she expected, in the showjumping arena, but instead to uncover the truth about Blue Angel’s past, and to stop her dreams for success from slipping through her fingers…

Against the Clock at Ravensbay is the sixth instalment in Cressida Burton’s horsey boarding school book series, The Ravensbay School Stories, enjoyed by pony-mad kids and grown-ups alike!
