An orphaned boy is accused of a crime he did not commit and he is on the run.

Chase was a really good book. From the cover you think it's about a horse when it's really not. It is about a runaway trying to make a new life for himself.
LibraryThing member Sonya.Contreras
Boys enjoyed it.
Suspenseful.
Problem-solving.
Chase had to choose between helping an injured man and being caught as a murderer or getting away...Good questions and discussions caused.
