When Lucky's life is also threatened by this illness, neither the local vet nor Krstie's brother, Matt, can identify what's wrong. Desperate, Kirstie makes a third and final attempt to find a cure for her beloved horse. Driving Lucky deep into the Rockies, she seeks out Zak Stone, a legendary horse doctor. Will he be able to save Lucky's life, or will Kirstie have to say goodbye? Read and find out!

Exciting book for horse lovers (my daughter's review!)

When riding at Eagles Peak, Kristie and Lisa find a runaway horse with a mysterious illness. When Lucky also falls sick, Kristie and her brother Matt go in search of legendary horse doctor Zak Stone. But when a woman at a gas station informs them that Zak Stone no longer heals people's horses, questions start popping up. Will Kristie be able to convince Zak Stone to heal her horse and will Lucky be able to hold on the rest of the trip? This book was exiting and anyone who loves horses should read it.
