Jo Harper #3

Roping A Planet

Rate this book
During the autumn of 1910 twelve-year old deputy constable Jo Harper is making the most of a warm Indian Summer until a deadly mystery brings a winter chill to the season. When chief badge toter Abby Drake asks Jo to help promote the movie career of Jupiter, an enormous prize-winning horse, neither of Willowby, Wyoming's top law & order gals expect the storm of fire and flaming arrows that follows.

And with so many other things straying off the trail—from a potential new boyfriend to keeping an autograph book, from a perpetually absent father to the unrelenting progress of 20th century technology—how will Jo rope her destiny and tie up her most dangerous adventure at the same time?

Jo Harper, Abby Drake, and Frog return with Jupiter, "a Horse to Remember!" in this sequel to RACING A DOG STAR

The third Jo Harper adventure is as fun and inventive as the previous entries.

Twelve year old Jo, secret deputy of old Abby Drake, is part of the team protecting the giant horse Jupiter. The owners want to get the big animal in the burgeoning movie industry and someone else seems to have other ideas.

Bullets fired at it, a flaming arrow that just misses both Jo and the horse, and finally the barn Jupiter was hidden in set on fire. In the latter instance, Jupiter wasn't even in the barn, Jo finding him tied in a nearby thicket.

Young Jo comes up with a plan to catch the would be killer.

As mentioned, wonderful fun for readers.
