About This Book
It was not whimsy that had brought him together with this red horse to run this race. It was the justice of time.
Raised without hope or pride in his heritage to what promises to be a short life of crime, alcohol, and drugs, Nez Perce teenager Al George gets an unexpected second chance. A heist gone wrong ends up with Al working on probation at the very Idaho ranch he and his "friends" tried to rob, owned by Celia Bolt, who left her own rich-but-dysfunctional family to move West many years ago, and the taciturn Morgan Kyles, who has his own checkered past.
Over the course of the summer of 1986, Celia and Morgan work out the thorny details of their relationship, while Al regains his pride and his sense of self as he works with the ranch's signature Appaloosas, finds loveâand finally, through a deep bond with one very special horse, reconnects with his Nez Perce heritage and discovers the truth of his strange, recurring dreams of an Indian brave on another special horse, striving to protect his people from the soldiers pursuing them.
For everyone involved, one summer changes everything.
