With his girlfriend away travelling and a solitary autumn ahead of him, Pike, former dressage protégé and heir to two very different family traditions, finds himself alone with the question of what he wants to do with his life. In the meantime, there is a young stallion to train, a new friend to tame, some old ones to rescue and a mystery to solve.
Set in the grounds of Hawthorne Cottage, The Boy with the Amber Eyes is a follow up, stand-alone novel to Eleanor McGraw, a pony named Mouse and a boy called Fire.
