The Mysterious Mares

Deep in the rolling green countryside of Ireland, something mysterious is stirring at Bracken Stud.

When a quiet roan pony named Jenny arrives at the yard, Monty senses something no one else can explain. Guided by the strange warmth of his glowing compass, Monty and his faithful friend Whiskers soon find themselves drawn into a story filled with forgotten memories, hidden connections, and mares searching for where they truly belong.

From the stone walls of Cork to the distant hills of the Cotswolds, old ribbons, whispered stories, and long-lost friendships begin to weave together in unexpected ways.

But some journeys are not about where you travel.

They are about finding the feeling that tells you you're home.

Filled with heartwarming adventure, gentle humour, beautiful countryside settings, and unforgettable animal characters, The Mysterious Mares is a touching story about friendship, belonging, courage, and trusting the compass we all carry inside us.
