‘Biddy, I’m sorry, we’re going to have to leave her.’

‘What?’ Biddy struggled out of the quicksand.

'You can’t leave her! The tide is coming in. She’ll

drown!’ But the pony is trapped and Biddy is

forced to go on without her. Next day the only

signs of Bella are hoof prints in the sand... with

small footprints and the paw prints of a dog.

Who has rescued Bella? Biddy’s search takes her

into wild secret country where she discovers the

truth about a mysterious disappearance that

happened many years ago.
