(4) YA When fifteen-year-old horse lover Rachel arrives in Boston in 1872, she becomes--against her parents' will--involved in fighting a series of fires and a mysterious ailment afflicting the city's firefighting horses. Horse enthusiasts will enjoy the equine details and the action, based on the historical Great Boston Fire, although the plucky heroine and "against all odds" plot seem dated.
