Gemcie
and her Irish Hunter, Marshal, are about to capture the World Cup when a nasty
fall dashes their chances. While she is mending, her arch rival seizes this
opportunity to catch a ride on Marshal, and to seduce her young husband.
Confused and dazed by her new circumstances, Gemcie heads for the high Sierras
hoping the majestic spires that captured the heart of the father she never met
will provide the answers she seeks. She finds strength and solace riding solo
on the John Muir Trail, but a bear attack ends her time of introspection and
places her in the care of a solitary cowboy manning a fire lookout. Brady, who
seems to love animals more than people, shows her love and gives her the
courage to get back in the saddle. Haunted by images of Marshal being abused by
his owners, Gemcie returns to rescue him and fly high with him once more.
Ballou’s prose gallops ahead at breakneck speed as she takes you along on this
wild ride.
