A missing sister, a local curse, a dead swan, and the relentless heat of June in the Fens combine to make The Naseby Horses a moving and powerful story, and an astonishing debut novel...
 
Seventeen-year-old Simon’s sister Charlotte is missing from the lonely Fenland village the family recently moved to from London. Simon is epileptic and his seizures are increasing in severity, but he is determined to find his sister. When he is told of the local curse of the Naseby horses, he is convinced it has something to do with Charlotte’s disappearance. Despite resistance from the villagers, the police, and his own family, Simon battles to uncover the truth, and save his sister.
 
Under the oppressive Fenland skies and in the heat of a relentless June, Simon’s bond with Charlotte is fierce, all-consuming, and unbreakable. But can he find her? And does she even want to be found?
 
Drawing on philosophy, science, and the natural world, The Naseby Horses tells a spell-binding story of the bond between a brother and his sister.
