(More customer reviews)Here is a fast-moving adventure, not only filled with many heart-pulsing moments of plausible action but a fascinating gallery of fully-rounded and highly engaging characters. Ross Garvey is the young Colorado rancher hero, whose prize Appaloosa is stolen; Jaimie Callahan, the spirited fifteen-year-old heroine, who insists on accompanying him to hunt down the thieves; Ash Callahan (who is seeking revenge) and his young accomplice, Sonny Wilke, the villains. (I give nothing away here. The identities of the thieves are revealed on page 13). The author not only knows her Old West terrain as intimately as the lines on her hand, but she can describe the country with such an engrossing relish of fascinating details, that the rough-hewn border land that Mexico didn't want becomes as three-dimensional as the memorable principals themselves. At first the plot seems to be moving in a fast but pretty straightforward manner, but author Melissa Bowersock has plenty of surprises in store as the plot twists and turns towards its unexpected but satisfying conclusion.

When Ross Garvey's prized Appaloosa is stolen from his Colorado ranch, he fully intends to hunt down the thieves in their New Mexico hideout and regain his best broodmare. What he doesn't count on is bull-headed, fifteen year old Jaimie Callahan, whose horse was also stolen by the same thieves. And he certainly does not anticipate the beautiful Mexican girl who's dealing with the thieves, nor the fact that an entire company of Mexican troops is in on the deal!
