Twelve-year-old orphan Christina is sent to live with her uncle and his two sons in their country house, Flambards. She fears and dislikes her domineering uncle, and finds her cousin Mark arrogant and selfish. But Flambards is not all bad, for Christina soon discovers a passion for
horse-riding, and a true friend in her cousing Will. It is only as time goes by that Christina realizes she too has a key part to play in the future of this strange, unruly household...This wonderfully written story is the first in K.M. Peyton's Flambards quartet, and was the runner-up for the
Carnegie medal.
This paperback edition is in a smaller mass-market format.
