Both, for as long as she can remember, have been ruled by her father, who demands strict obedience in all areas of her life. The warped power dynamic of coach and rider extends far beyond the stables, and Roan's relationship with her father has long been inappropriate. She has been able to compartmentalize that dark aspect of her life, ruthlessly focusing on her ambitions as a rider heading for the Olympics, just as her father had done. However, her developing relationship with Will Howard, a boy her own age, broadens the scope of her vision. At the intersection of a commercial page-turner and urgent survivor story, Dark Horses takes the searing themes of abuse and resilience in Gabriel Tallent's My Absolute Darling and applies the compelling exploration of female strength in Room by Emma Donoghue. In much the same way that V.C. Andrews's Flowers in the Attic transfixed a generation of readers, Susan Mihalic's debut is set to a steady beat that will keep you turning the pages"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Large type books. $0 (DLC)sh 85074712 650 0 $a Fathers and daughters $v Fiction. $0 (DLC)sh2008103515 650 0 $a Teenage girls $v Fiction. $0 (DLC)sh2008112612 650 0 $a Horsemen and horsewomen $v Fiction. $0 (DLC)sh2009126513 650 0 $a Sexually abused children $v Fiction. $0 (DLC)sh 85120743 650 0 $a Dysfunctional families $v Fiction. $0 (DLC)sh2008108881 941 $a 1 945 $a lpt 952 $l DPPE403 $d 20240611015258.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6303B8D827B811EF9FBFAF4235ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
