About Christina’s book Pony Confidential:

“My novel is a mystery told from the point of view of a pony who is trying to reunite with the one little girl he really loved, twenty-five years after he last saw her. It’s a hilarious, rollicking escapade that takes him back and forth across America, encountering all kinds of people, animals and adventures. If you love animals, this one’s for you!” – Christina Lynch
