This book is really aimed at the horse lover.  Set in the 1960s, Abby loves horses and everything that goes along with horses.  The horse she worked with in the last book has been sold and now she is working with Black George who loves to jump.  Black George will probably attract offers when he wins first place in a jumping contest.  The other horse Abby is working with is Jack who she may lose for another reason.  There is some doubt who really owns Jack.
