| About the Book
The
birth of a world champion-bred colt sets
in
motion the tale of unlikely lovers,
unlikely
saviors, madness and homicide.
Jeff
Day's daughter has watched him make his mark on
the
quarter horse world with his stallion. Driven by her
father's
influence, Christine Day has waited to find the
right
horse to achieve that same illusive partnership of
greatness.
When the family's celebrity broodmare dies
giving
birth to a promising foal, the young woman
inherits
the exhausting responsibility of hand-raising
the
new orphan colt.
Late
one evening, Jeff notices headlights pulling onto
the
road from a deserted lane near the family's
Missouri
River Valley farm. An inspection of the
shadowy
spot reveals footprints and cigarette butts.
Someone
has been watching Jeff's family.
What
did the stalker want? Jeff's daughter?
His
treasured show horses?
"Rules
of the Stream" blends a passionate horse story
with
romantic and treacherous subplots. Complicated
with
a whodunit twist, it should intrigue non-horse
readers
and get the nod from seasoned horsemen. |
