Title: The Last Chance Stable - Charles-Antoine Cros - book

Summary :

The Horse Club on the Isle of Noirmoutier, owned by Mathieu Delasselle, welcomes a new resident: Scharming, a jet-black thoroughbred, recognized as psychologically unstable by many stables.
Mr. Lassouche, its owner, has heard about the "Last Chance Stable" which, it seems, is achieving incredible results and he offers Mathieu a very large sum of money if he manages to get Scharming back on the racetrack.

On the verge of bankruptcy, Mathieu sees light at the end of the tunnel with this horse. During a conversation on MSN between Mathieu's son, Maxime, and his friend Nicolas, a malicious computer scientist realizes that a large sum of money is at stake and decides to take a closer look at the Delaselle family.
Scharming is calmer but he doesn't seem to be integrating the learning...
Maxime, who had undergone hand surgery following a tractor accident, finally leaves the hospital and falls under the spell of the stallion.
Despite his disability and without his father's knowledge, he will ride the horse at night, until he decides to go for a ride in the forest by moonlight.
What happened in the Luzéronde woods? Why is the horse panicking when he returns to the stable? Will the man, lurking in the shadows, succeed in carrying out his diabolical plan?

Beyond the story, Maxime shows that a teenager can overcome his disability and move mountains by pushing his own limits.
