Andrea "Andi" Carter returns in her third nail-biting adventure. Even after dealing with escaped convicts and wild horses, Andi isn't prepared for her latest surprise: a sister she never knew she had. Katherine left the family when Andi was just a baby, and a heap of trouble has followed her now that she is back. Andi finds herself not only dealing with Katherine's sudden appearance, but also a mysterious drifter named T. J. Silver, who has a lot to hide.

My thoughts: ANDREA CARTER AND THE FAMILY SECRET is the third book in the Circle C Adventure series, but it easily stands alone. Tweener girls will identify with Andrea, and feel almost as though she is their friend. My twelve-year-old daughter loves these books because they have horses in them.

Andi Carter is realistically developed, and the scrapes she gets into are sometimes amusing, sometimes quite serious. I figured out part of the mystery in this book quite quickly, so I didn’t have any surprises.
