While in the original legend, Brom Bones was a bully and somewhat of a villain, here in Horseman, he’s main character Ben’s beloved grandfather. Horseman revisit the tale of the Headless Horseman, but with plenty of twists. Could the Horseman be real after all? Or does something even more sinister stalk the woods?Ĭhristina Henry books are always a treat, and this new release is another book that was perfect for my October spooky mood. But then Ben and a friend stumble across the headless body of a child in the woods near the village, and the sinister discovery makes Ben question everything the adults in Sleepy Hollow have ever said. Fourteen-year-old Ben loves to play Sleepy Hollow boys, reenacting the events Brom once lived through. Twenty years after those storied events, the village is a quiet place. Brom says that’s just legend, the village gossips talking. Not even Ben Van Brunt’s grandfather, Brom Bones, who was there when it was said the Horseman chased the upstart Crane out of town. Everyone in Sleepy Hollow knows about the Horseman, but no one really believes in him.
