Bookroo's summary

At the River Heights Horse Show, the stakes are high, with Olympic dreams on the line. When horses are mysteriously drugged, Nancy Drew, along with Bess and George, must unravel the tangled web of deceit. As they delve deeper, they uncover a world where ambition knows no bounds. Who is willing to risk it all for victory, and why? With each clue, the mystery intensifies, challenging Nancy to outsmart a cunning adversary. Can she solve the case before the competition ends, or will the culprit gallop away with the prize?

From the publisher

Some equestrians are up to more than horseplay in this third book of the Nancy Drew Diaries, a fresh approach to a classic series. At the prestigious–and competitive–River Heights Horse Show, the prizes, which range from money to possible placement on the Olympic Team, are so highly coveted that anyone from the riders to the owners will do anything to win…even drug the horses! Who’s up to no good? Nancy, Bess and George are on the case!
