The story follows horseman Ike Cherny as he struggles to make his filly a World Champion; however, he finds himself surrounded by suspicious and dangerous people. Since the novel is written by an experienced horsewoman, rest assured that the backdrop of the sometimes unscrupulous competitive horse world is completely believable, and her detailed description of life at a stable is refreshingly accurate for a work of fiction. The story is delightfully disturbing, portraying a quiet Connecticut stable caught under a dark cloud of unsettling murders and toxic waste dumping. As the plot thickens, you just might find yourself staying up late to read another chapter. Go ahead, enjoy the (fictional) dark side of the horse world."
