Voiceless

Voiceless is a coming-of-age novel with a twist: it features a teen runaway who has no speaking voice. Nicknamed Ghost, runaway teen Annabel’s interaction with her world is limited to how well she can convey her wants and feelings to others. Danger lurks in many places and she faces harrowing situations when she leaves her foster home with a tough and messed up boy and hitchhikes to the city. Once there, the danger intensifies as she confronts a rounder who expects sex in return for shelter.

In her quest for love, Ghost finds Mary who rescues her and other runaways, just as she rescues abused horses. It is Mary who gives Ghost a chance to rediscover the peace that can be found in nature and allows her to discover a love of horses.
