fullDescription

"The audiobook narrated by Tonantzin Carmelo is enthralling." - Buzzfeed

"Narrator Tonantzin Carmelo's portrayal of Kari imbues her with a rebellious and tenacious attitude that makes her immediately likable." - Library Journal
Erika T. Wurth's White Horse is a gritty, vibrant debut novel about an Indigenous woman who must face her past when she discovers a bracelet haunted by her mother's spirit.
Some people are haunted in more ways than one.
Kari James, Urban Native, is a fan of heavy metal, ripped jeans, Stephen King novels, and dive bars. She spends most of her time at her favorite spot in Denver, the White Horse. When her cousin Debby finds an old family bracelet that once belonged to Kari's mother, it inadvertently calls up both her mother's ghost and a monstrous entity, and her willful ignorance about her past is no longer sustainable...
Haunted by visions of her mother and hunted by this mysterious creature, Kari must search for what happened to her mother all those years ago. Her father, permanently disabled from a car crash, can't help her. Her Auntie Squeaker seems to know something but isn't eager to give it all up at once. Debby's anxious to help, but her controlling husband keeps getting in the way. Kari's journey toward a truth long denied by both her family and law enforcement forces her to confront her dysfunctional relationships, thoughts about a friend she lost in childhood, and her desire for the one thing she's always wanted but could never have.
A Macmillan Audio production from Flatiron Books.

     Starred review from March 1, 2023
     

     Wurth's chilling debut is a ghost story that blends Indigenous mysticism with modern sensibilities. Kari James, an urban Indigenous woman of Apache and Chickasaw descent, had her struggles growing up, with her mother abandoning her as an infant, her father permanently disabled, and she herself barely surviving her wild teen years. As an adult, she's a waitress, a fan of heavy metal and Stephen King, and a favored patron of the Denver dive bar the White Horse. Life was normal until Kari's cousin Debby gave her a bracelet that once belonged to Kari's mother. It opens Kari's eyes to a world where her dead mother's ghost watches her, and a terrifying beast stalks her from the shadows. Kari soon discovers not just the borders of the supernatural world but who her mother really was. Wurth fills the world Kari occupies with urban grit and eclectic characters while also injecting brutal moments of terror. Narrator Tonantzin Carmelo's portrayal of Kari imbues her with a rebellious and tenacious attitude that makes her immediately likable. VERDICT Fans of the supernatural rooted in realism, as well as of Indigenous authors such as Stephen Graham Jones, will want to accompany Kari on her spiritual and emotional journey.--James Gardner
