Chance - Paperback

by Kate MacDonald (Author)

Broken hearts unite two unforgettable women: one in prison, the other imprisoned by grief. Destiny Tubb is young, luckless, disadvantaged; Dr. Sara Beth Corcoran is elderly, wealthy and cultured. When a wild mustang gallops into their lives, obsession and jealousy escalate into a desperate race to save a truck of slaughter-bounds horses. A story as dramatic as its western landscape, "Chance" reveals an unexpected friendship that transforms prejudice into love; fear into unimagined strength, and crippling grief into a passion for an extraordinary mission that saves lost girls and unwanted horses.Wild Horse round-ups, kill-buyers, government fraud and conspiracy frame a friendship as unpredictable, surprisingly rewarding, and profound as the bond between a wild horse and a human.Researched for over a decade in the field, this novel finally tells the true story of the threat to America's wild horse herds.
