The Part-Exchange Pony

Lutterworth, Guildford, 1975

Stephen, the child of unhorsy parents who now run a g arage on the site of his grandfather’s livery stables,
thinks the best way to get a pony is to get one in part-exchange, so the next time they sell a car, he
suggests they take a pony in part exchange, rather than a car.  His parents agree, not without misgivings,
and so Stephen gets Gypsy.  There is a mystery about Gypsy though, and Stephen finds himself forced
to face it.
