A frozen palace and a sparkling secret – an epic Russian adventure awaits!
Anna Orlov might be the luckiest girl in the world. She is the daughter of a Russian Count and lives in a beautiful snowbound palace that is home to a menagerie of wonderful animals: tigers, wolfhounds and, of course, horses. And she is also the owner of a beautiful heirloom – a diamond necklace with a secret past. But when Anna defies her father’s wishes and secretly raises a young colt alongside her pet tiger cub, her actions will have far reaching consequences. And soon Anna, her tiger and her horse will be fighting for survival in the frozen tundra of Siberia… An epic adventure of horses, friendship and sparkling secrets!Reviews
The horse inspierd me the most because he was strong and fought for his owner

Found it a bit strange. It was about two siblings - The sister entered a competition but her performance was spoiled by her brother. The book would suit those particularly interested in horse stories.

I don't mean to be rude to the author of this book, but it was a bit boring! Also I don't understand what Niet! means as it is used a lot in this story. Does it mean no? Does it mean stop? Does it mean get it up? I think the author could have at one point next to the word put what it means . But I do think it means something in Russian. I am also surprised on how long the author spent on the girl after the girl in the mirror was mentioned at the end of a chapter. I wouldn't really recommend it to anyone, only if they ran out of books to read.

I didn't like it when Anna's brother was hurting the baby tiger with a fork. I liked it when Anna's father's horse had a baby. The baby horse was called Dragon because he looked a bit like a dragon.

I liked Valentina and Anna because they each have a horse they're looking after or own and I love horses. It interested me because on the title it mentioned horse and I love horses so I wanted to try it. I would recommend it to anyone that loves horses or adventure books. I think it is a great book.

This book is so very amazing- a mix of fabulous talent and beautiful imaginative description. A book that every one should read; not just because it is beautifully written but because it was very heartfelt and inspiring.
