About this listen
An NPR "Book of the Day"
In this one-of-a-kind mystery with heart and humor, a hilariously grumpy pony must save the only human he’s ever loved after discovering she stands accused of a murder he knows she didn’t commit.
Pony has been passed from owner to owner for longer than he can remember. Fed up, he busts out and goes on a cross-country mission to reunite with Penny, the little girl whom he was separated from and hasn’t seen in years.
Penny, now an adult, is living an ordinary life when she gets a knock on her door and finds herself in handcuffs, accused of murder and whisked back to the place she grew up. Her only comfort when the past comes back to haunt her is the memory of her precious, rebellious pony.
Hearing of Penny’s fate, Pony knows that Penny is no murderer. So, as smart and devious as he is cute, the pony must use his hard-won knowledge of human weakness and cruelty to try to clear Penny’s name and find the real killer.
This acutely observant, feel-good mystery reveals the humanity of animals and beastliness of humans in a rollicking escapade of epic proportions.

“The pony in this mystery is such a delightfully bitter misanthrope.... A kooky page-turner that took me back to every girl-and-her-horse book I ever read, but Misty of Chincoteague was nowhere near as spicy as this pony is!”—NPR
“Clever, funny, and full of sugar cubes.”—People
“A quirky and boundary-defying mystery unlike anything in the genre …Lynch’s writing flows, her plot is intriguing, and her characters—especially Pony—are sassy and lovable. Horse lovers, mystery lovers, or anyone looking for a delightfully unusual read should check out Christina Lynch’s Pony Confidential.”—Mystery & Suspense Magazine

Original, moving, suspenseful, witty and full of heart
Oh my goodness, this story is is entirely original. Is wonderful exploration of what it means to encompass one’s entire nature as a human and a profound reflection on the lives of animals domestic and wild. It’s way more than an adventure mystery thriller. featuring a pony as a main character which may seem odd but if you just roll with it and let loose with plausibility in terms of the plot, well stick with it and you will be richly rewarded. The story held me in suspense and at the same time made me stop and think about how we humans treat animals - they are after all sentient beings who feel for more than we generally acknowledge. It’s also a love story on many levels. You’ll be very glad you’ve listened to it.
